I agree. Very much so, given that I made kdebase provide a kde-open binary, too.

So, hmm, it sounds like there should be kde-cp and kde-mv binaries too
(those would all be copies of the same binary, there isn't much in splitting
the source code even further, but well, it's only 240K with full debug symbols).

Yeah I like that, kde-cp and kde-mv sound much more intuitive than kioclient or even
kde-ioclient to find it with completion.
