Please make konqueror use double click to open files by default.
I think this is a _HORRIBLE_ idea. Doubleclicks are an ergonomic nightmare and the worst thing ever forced on computer users (remember when you had to do a double-click for the first time?). I've done it for now, but I'm expecting lots of bug reports about this coming in as soon as it is public.
Don't change this back in response to bug reports; of course there will be bug reports. Anytime you change anything people who were used to the old way will complain. If this is changed back it needs to be a deliberate policy decision for both desktops; bring it up in the proper forum (internal desktop mailing list). Until the policy decision is changed though, it's a bug if our KDE doesn't follow the Red Hat policy.
Ehh.. I only wish that the following scheme was implemented in kde: a click selects the unselected and activates(opens) the selected. This is a sort of double-click but not quite : in the standard double-click behavior you have to click twice even the selected item. Too bad there is no way to set this now.
Fix confirmed with kdebase-3.0.3-10.
