replacing kcontrol with system settings

[James Spencer]

Hi,

I'm officially nobody. Well, OK, I'm a long time KDE user. I know it's not 
terribly appropriate for me to mail kde core devel since I'm not a core 
developer, but the Kcontrol discussion is interesting. FWIW, I like the new 
settings:/ thingy, and I like the Idea of a Mac'esq' drawer, but how about 
two meta categories in the interface, 'most frequently used', and 'most 
recently used'. This would be not unlike the either / or option presented on 
the KPanel of the KDE 3 era. I would have loved that in the vintage Kcontrol, 
as it would have saved me getting flagged over by my girlfriend to change the 
same setting to suit her whims... As cliche as that example is...

(Or maybe instead a Mac'esq' drawer, wasn't there some big hubba-ba-boo about 
being able to meta colour tag files, maybe you could extend that metaphor, 
and give it a meta-settings-groups... Anyway.)
