Hi Lionel, and thanks for the comment. I'm aware this is something "weird", but it is a feature I really like including in rekonq, so I pushed in as you suggested some days ago (take decisions, remember? :) ). I just thought about the "plasma containment" idea. And I'm not sure it could really fit our needs. That's because we cannot provide there something different people just "has" in its desktop. Following my initial idea, I'll try to explain my ideas about. In that page we can easily provide this sort of information: - history (all or just more recent. Last day? Last 30 visited sites?) - recently closed tabs - bookmarks (again, all or just "some") - a search box for every of the preferred search engines (search in Google, Wikipedia, KDE API, etc...) I'm seeing also some code about "site preview". There is something about that in kde-apps (http://kde- apps.org/content/show.php/SpeedDial+for+KDE?content=96053). We can reuse that code to provide it. I think these infos are more important for the browsing task. We need just to choose what are "best" to display.
