I am concerned that rekonq seems to get further and further away from established standard practices in KDE. One of the things I like about KDE is that applications are very consistent in their behavior. I know pretty much what to expect when I try to do something ordinary with an application, and I know pretty much where to look to find something. The way settings applications work, for instance, is very consistent across all of KDE. I can see the benefit from having a touch-oriented settings application, but I am not sure it worth breaking consistency with the rest of KDE on the desktop. In some cases there are clear benefits to breaking consistency, like the menu button, but I don't see that being the case here. -Todd _______________________________________________ rekonq mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/rekonq
