Is it as bad as that?  I haven't tried it yet since I'm on a 
distro where I've now got everything working the way I'd like, and 
I don't want to upgrade and have to go through it all again.  I'm 
used to hearing how they botched the upgrade to KDE4, but I hadn't 
heard they'd botched the upgrade to KDE5.  

I was actually thinking, a lot of what they're promoting as new 
features are things that KDE4 (at least) had ages ago, like the 
ability to have multiple panels, or put the panels where you want 
them on the screen.
