Did you ever find the discussion of a proposal to implement this change? I 
looked briefly without success?

I saw the clever workaround of adding panels on all sides in 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=323504 and commented/CC'd its 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325286 successor. My workaround for this 
and other KDE4 paradigm replacements is the same one I've been using since 
the v4.0 was unleashed - use v4 on (my many) test installations only, where 
"improvements" need not be a source of constant irritation and frustration, 
but KDE3 for mailnews, 15 tabs across two IRC windows, triple digit+ tabs 
among 6+ different web browsers, 10 Konsole tabs among 2 windows, and other 
routine applications on my 24/7 desktop. Lest anyone think KDE3 is "old", I 
keep another system booted to OS/2 24/7 for my DOS DB & spreadsheet apps. 
What ain't broke don't need fixin.
