Hi,

I think, this is already changed in cvs HEAD.
At least, text/plain opens in a separate kwrite here.
OTOH, there seems to an incosistency between the filemanager settings and this 
behaviour. The settings of 'Filemanager=>File Associations' for text/plain, 
Embedding are here: 'use settings for text group' and the text group says 
'show file in embedded viewer'
But the file opens in a separate viewer (kwrite).

regards, till
