Yep, konqueror is my filemanager, web browser, (s)ftp client and quick
previewer (with kparts integration).
It is just great to be able to split a view and have a web page on
one side
and an sftp connection on the other to quickly copy linked documents
from
the first to the second :-)
(actually, splitting views is one of my favourite konqueror killer
feature)
That's how I do it too. Really cool! Also, the KDE4.5.X where you drag
the window into the left side and it re-draws it to a half-monitor
size and you can then open another window with it re-drawing on the
other half. Really efficient!
However, Dolphin seems to me a little less clunkier than Konqueror.
Which is why I am trying out Dolphin as an ftp agent. I find it
(Dolphin) still a little temperamental and keep going back to
Konqueror though. I do my file managing with Dolphin though. Mdv2010.1
KDE4.5.0.

Why are we even talking about removing Konqueror?? So many people use
it as their default file manager and ftp client that removing it seems
crazy. While I do agree that Konqueror is not the greatest web browser
around and Rekonq is a much better choice for a pure Qt/KDE browser, I
do not think we should be excluding Konqueror at all. Plus, Dolphin
still requires certain parts of Konqueror to function correctly if I'm
not mistaken.
While at first I found Dolphin rather weak in comparison to Konqueror,
as far as file management went, it has improved over the last couple of
years. Now, I actually prefer Dolphin over Konqueror when it comes to
file management but I still use Konqueror for ftp or when I need a all
in one kind of tool. If Konqueror could render web pages as well as
Rekonq, Firefox, or Chromium I'd definitely use it as my default web
browser.
