That's not the worst part. As I said above, most of the k3b functionalities are not part of the k3b source, but the kdelibs source. What you described is just the "tip of the iceberg" (<-- not sure that's used in English, ). You would need to port (or better said, rewrite) a lot of stuff, overall if you want to preserve ripping.

All in all I don't think that's a realistic approach unless you have a dedicated team of expert kde hackers that are also proficient with some other toolkit. And even them, building from the ground would be easier.

K3b :
If I was very concerned about disk space (and not using KDE),
I would just build a package with the 20 MB KDE, Qt related
dependencies.
You can try your own count : 'ldd /usr/bin/k3b' etc.
