So KOS is a "complete" kit after all?

Well, if you consider the stuff that dc-chain downloads, builds, and installs to be part of KOS (and you're starting from a relatively POSIX-like system that has a compiler on it that can be used to build GCC -- i.e, not Windows by itself), then I guess you could consider it as such?

Of course, it also depends on what you consider to be a complete SDK.

It would make DC dev'ing way more handy.
Have you checked out kos-ports? There is some stuff in there to make development easier (streaming music for example). It's far from perfect (e.g. I'm missing a 3D model and level loader), but you can of course make suggestions, start projects and recruit people to work on them in an open source way. Maybe other commercial homebrew devs see your point and would collaborate on those "boring" parts as well?
