Hi!
In fact, having windows with just "File Open.." on Windoze systems has already
bugged me several times. (If you don't use them immediately, but later,
there is indeed no visible indication of which program they belong to.) IMHO
that's a bug.

Agreed.

Agreed. Show people the advantages of a KDE desktop, where you know which
program wants you to choose a file. ;-)
The only disadvantage may be that people think: KDE (as a DE) is not so
different, see: This KDE program is very similar to other Windows programs.
But that's the price to pay for consistency I guess, which is a preliminary
for a DE's usability IMHO.
