[konsole] [Bug 470040] favorite commands list feature

Hello Andrea,

Because you only have the ssh plugin, that means you are running a quite
old version of Konsole - it was the first plug-in I made as a proof of
concept that the idea would work.

Is there any chance you can update your version to get the quick commands
plug-in? I believe it will solve most of the issues.

As for a way to add a favorite menu, this wouldn’t be done on Konsole but
on the “kxmlgui” framework, in a way that all kde applications can benefit
from.

Best
