I didn't even realize that this was still possible with the apps modules, but 
I'd like to keep it.  (Actually I may reenable it in my own kdelibs builds, 
if possible.)

I still find it more convenient to work in the source tree since my primary 
interface for building and editing is the shell it means that I don't have to 
have one shell open for make and another one for opening up source files.  I 
assume I'm not alone in this style of development.
