This should not have been happened. Maybe you dis something in a wrong way? 

I treid myself and it did not deinstall kde. 

It is important, not to do any upgrade while the entry for sid is in 
sources.list. 

Just install both packages (as told in the wiki), then after this install 
remove the sid entry at once and repeat an apt update again (this will delte 
all entries from the sid repo). This step is really important!

So you will only get both packages and its dependencies, nothing more. 

It also will not deinstall kde, if doing so.

I suppose, you might have forgotten to do an apt update after installing the 
two packages, so it looks for me, and of course, then it will deinstall 
packages with missing dependencies.

Solution? Hmm, make sure, the sid entry is removed from sources.list. Then do 
an apt-get update and apt-get install --reinstall task-kde-desktop (or with 
your language i.e. task-german-kde-desktop).

This should reinstall all necessary packages again.

So note: If you do an apt-get update, aptitude update or apt update, you can 
retrieve to the package list of only packages of the repo, which are active in 
sources.list. Any of the above commands will set actualise the package lists.

Hope, this helps.

Best
