            Bug ID: 299225
          Severity: wishlist
           Version: unspecified
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Add open after saving option to save file dialog
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: hohenegger at web.de
          Hardware: Ubuntu Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: kde

I very often find myself saving a file (typically mail attachments in kmail)
and then immediately navigating to its location to open it with an appropriate
application. It would be great if all kde "save file" dialogs had a checkbox
option "open after saving". I think it does not spoil the simplicity of the
"save file" dialog as its meaning is intuitively understandable by everybody.

Note that I am aware that I could open the file directly in kmail and then
choose "save as" from the file dialog of the application. But this way I do not
profit from kmails remember save folder feature. I would need to navigate all
the way from the /tmp directory to the required target folder. Similar applies
for other KDE software. Therefore I often choose the "save as" option and open
the file later.

Reproducible: Always
