It seems that these rumors were greatly exaggerated and that KDE-4 will be available in Hardy after all. The blueprint is on launchpad, and the Alpha 6 CDs are available for download. Quote from the blueprint:

Rationale: KDE 4 rocks, we should support it.
No word on how official the support is exactly, but it's there."
