It is curious that you say you were aware of this issue, and yet you
did not file a bug against the package in sid.  Or perhaps you were
aware, but didn't yet realize the issue was in sid too? :)  In any
event, I am not a KDE user on sid, so it isn't appropriate for me to
file a bug.  Please file one.

I'm not sure this is appropriate for Debian in general.  In one
context, the Bible would be considered religious, in another,
historical, another literary, and another still, philosophical.  Is
"religious" a useful category?

But within the specific context of Ichthux, we could certainly have a
top-level menu for Ichthux material, with submenus beneath.  Thus:

Debian
   -> Apps
      -> Tools (or maybe "Text" would be more appropriate/less cluttered)
         -> Bibletime
   -> Ichthux
      -> Bible study
         -> Bibletime
         -> Gnomesword
      -> Office
         -> Openoffice
         -> ? (christian organization office-related packages)
      -> etc.
