Yes. But I just got the victim of  a KMail crash (It shows a dialog about "you cannot encrypt everything" and crashes after I click OK - on EACH mail that I send, fully reproducable).
Well, its the curse of running CVS HEAD.
20 minutes of writing Mail are lost ... argh ...

So here's the short form:

1) move to a "View" approach
Cleaning up the rotten drawing stuff and move to a clean "View" solution.

2) add a "Surround View"

3) Update Sliders if another application changes volumes (KMix ALSA)

4) make resizing work reliably (especially with the panel appplet)

5) cleanup 
remove dust of time

6) fix bugs
like crash-on-startup-if-soundcard-has-no-master-device
