I actually find the way konqueror handles the treeview *much more* reliable
and useful than the M$ Explorer one. In fact it's a *feature* for konqueror
to allow the user to collapse the current directory in the treeview without
forcing him out of the directory shown in the iconview/listview. Furthermore
it's also more efficient that a directory is not entered (shown in the
iconview/listview) when browsed over it with the direction keys in the
treeview but only when explicitely hitting enter. I think it's not too
burdensome for those who use key navigation to hit the additional enter to
change a directory considered that mostly advanced users use key navigation
who'll find that out anyway while the obvious -- clicking with the mouse on a
directory -- has always worked as expected and will always work that way.
Please, kfm developers, leave it the way it is.
Well, that's my personal opinion. The flamewar may begin ;-)
