Well, this was removed a long time ago, in the sense that there was no 
GUI option e.g to Konqueror to provide close on hover because of 
usability issues. Actually I'm fine with this behavior. :)
The real problem is that showing the close button where it is now is a 
hack. QToolBar does not provide the coordinates for the icon shown 
there, so that is found out more or less by trial and error. And if a 
style decides to put that icon somewhere else, it can all go wrong.

I have big fears that putting a separate close button near the text will 
face similar problems.

That is up to the konsole developer. Bug him (actually you just need to 
vote for the bug report that was opened because of this). The framework 
still supports it.
