The KDE team has released the first beta of KDE 4.2, slated for release coming January. Quite a lot of new features have been added, as well as lots of bug fixes and performance improvements. This release also makes a lot of strides to feature parity with KDE 3.x, by adding those small little features that KDE 3.x users are barely aware of, but which were missed in KDE 4.0/4.1, such as taskbar grouping, multiple rows in the taskbar, panel auto-hiding, a traditional icon desktop through 'full-screen' foderview, and so on.

That's Debian's fault. PowerDevil has been posted to kde-apps.org in July. It works on KDE 4.1. It's the distributor's responsibility to package and distribute apps.
My point is that PowerDevil is here since July. SUSE is capable of bundling it. When Debian does not bundle it with KDE 4.1, it's not KDE's fault.
It has arrived months ago: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/PowerDevil?content=85078
