Note that this will make a very marginal difference in most cases.
Unless there is an issue related to drag&drop, the clipboard, or window
size/resizing/maximizing/moving, etc., this should make no difference
whatsoever. It's not impossible that it could be throwing off
environment variables or something, but it is highly unlikely that this
is a problem.
You can run GNOME apps within KDE and vice versa; it's a matter of
having the appropriate libraries installed. They might not obey all of
the appearance conventions, but they should still work.
