I was just curious how much effect this delay trick had on perceived 
performance, and I replaced this call (SettingsBase.cpp, line 54)

	QTimer::singleShot(0, this, SLOT(initApplication()));

with a simple

	initApplication();

... and it now starts MUCH faster! Does this have something to do that I run 
from Konsole? Is KUniqueApplication getting confused by that trick? I mean, 
the application has to be forked somehow, I have no clue how this works 
internally, but for me the difference is HUGE (I am using icon view mode).

Anyone experiencing the same difference?
