I am quite surprised at that since one would have thought that it would have been a pretty basic part of desktop functionality.

Sounds like a big improvement but shame it will be delayed to 4.2 I guess users like myself who generally follow the Fedora lists don't get to see the upstream discussions and thinking unless we specifically go to the KDE development lists. However I, and I am sure many others, do appreciate the efforts that you and others put in to make sure that work does go into making KDE usable and functional especially with the huge change that has taken place between 3.5 and 4.x -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
