No. Its a matter of multi-language support.  Gnome has gone out of their
way to support multi-language support, and out of the box advertises
their multi-language support and has a whole gobject-introspection
mechanism to automate building the C API interface code required.

KDE doesn't seem so have a similar facility.  It has a C++ interface,
which due to C++'s compiler specific mangling of linker names make
coding the required C based foreign function support (that most
development languages have) much harder to maintain).  KDE seem
supported only in large developer communities like Python, where enough
Qt using developers exist to make it worthwhile.
