So my question is *why* doesn’t a bug like this get into openSUSE? (This is
not meant as a rhetorical question; I’m genuinely interested in the answer.)

A bug has to be reported to openSUSe in order to include a fix which was not
in the upstream KDE release openSUSE ships.

If you read the bug report you quoted it states: fixed in 4.7.4 and openSUSE
12.1 ships 4.7.2.

Maybe https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=736725 is of interest to
you.
