            Bug ID: 473907
           Summary: Support "always open tabs instead of windows"
    Classification: Applications
           Product: konsole
           Version: 23.04.3
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: amanita+KDEBUGS at mailbox.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Exactly like Dolphin by default, Konsole uses Tabs but opens new windows on
every action.

I think opening new windows comes from... Windows ! And its horrible!

So, personal opinion, Konsole should always open tabs instead of windows.

Now the real request: make the same setting as in Dolphin "open instances in
tabs instead of windows" should also be in Konsole, I think its missing there.

This would fit into other apps that behave the same "one instance only":
- Dolphin (configurable)
- Kate
- VLC (configurable)

This cleans up the taskbar a lot too, and clicking on the icon will allow to
open any tab/process, as they are in one window.

Question about that: seperate windows are different processes, I guess this has
a performance benefit. Does this apply to Tabs too? Otherwise this would be a
drawback of this behavior.

Not tagging it as "tabbar" as its about opening and settings?
