This change was intentionnal, for the file management mode (people with
"one window per dir" (i.e. the open-new-window-when-clicking-a-dir option)
don't want a sidebar in each window.

However I can see that people don't like it for Web Browsing, and I
understand that ;)
But this isn't very easy to solve... Konqueror doesn't only have two
modes, filemanagement and webbrowsing..... Well, we could do something
like if (isLocalFile) createSimpleWindow else createWindowFromProfile...

Would that be ok?

David.
