We used line separators since a long time. ;-) Well, that's not a 
problem, but I verified how Quanta's interface would look if all 
separators became line separators and I'm not very happy with the 
result, so I need to change the rc file to explicitely use simple 
separators. Sure, that's not a real problem for KDE CVS applications, 
but can be for third party apps.

Yeah, a change that affect all styles. :-) OK, so I said I'm pro line 
separators, but I don't think this is the time to make the change. But 
I won't oppose if you make it now, just let me know, so I can update my 
rc files.
