Either I'm misunderstanding you, or visa versa. You learn *one* API and you
get something that runs on win32, kde, gtk, etc. This is *more* consistancy
not less.

btw, if you feel you are getting added benefit from the java KDE binding
*and* you intend to build a plugin which only works on KDE, there's nothing
stopping you from doing so.
