More for the broken department -- still broken after all these versions.

I just detached a tab from Konqueror.  It was an FTP site if that 
matters.  And BOOM.  I normally have my Main ToolBar on the left side 
with a lot of icons and I, therefore use Small rather than the Default 
(which is Medium with my configuration) icon size and I have set Icons 
Only (in fact, this is my default in SystemSettings)  I also have the 
Extra ToolBar with the same settings.

Despite the fact that I had selected "Lock Toolbar Positions" on the 
mother window, the child window with the detached tab lost the Extra 
ToolBar and moved the Main ToolBar to the top and changed the icon size 
to Default.  So, I again selected the Extra ToolBar.  It appeared at the 
top and it has: Text Alongside Icons and Default icon size.  In short, 
it ignored my configuration and reverted to defaults.

This is seriously broken and totally unacceptable considering the 
current version number.

There is, IIUC, multiple bug reports related to this.  Some 'developers' 
seem to think that the problem has been fixed.
