Ok, although i consider it superfluous to ask for restoring crashed sessions in case a valid session can be restored, but that's just my personal preference.

When using preloading (and especially if one sets the use of preloading to "always"), then there is never a new process started, it's all in one process, and kfmclient simply talks to the running konqueror. So you would never offer restoration.

So it's kind of hard to make a difference, unless you add a different command-line switch to kfmclient which could then, when talking to a running konqueror, start by calling the "ask user" via DBus...

I always use the first but i see your point (i do not use preload because of past stability issues)...
So how about a static 'userHasBeenAsked' var in KonqMisc::createBrowserWindowFromProfile? 
Imho this window really should be shown only once, and as you mentioned only when konqy is launched by itself...

Because i didn't want to loose all my crashed sessions and the 'import crashed sessions as bookmarks' feature disappeared sometime, i had been clicking on 'ask again later' 42 bazillion times. Restoring all the crashed sessions always brought down the process (imho each session should restore as individual process, but that is another patch).
