Tabbed Browsing usability issue

[Hetz Ben Hamo]

Hi People,

I've seen something in tabbed browsing which I think is IMHO a wrong thing...

When clicking "Open a New Tab" to open a URL in a new tabbed inside Konqueror, 
the first part of the data is received (html, jpg, etc) and then the tabbed 
window is open..

Thats wrong. Why? pretty simple. Lets say a user is clicking on a 
"slashdotted" web site - since the site is slashdotted - he won't see any new 
tab until something is received or a time-out occures. Since the end user 
doesn't know about that - he will keep clicking to open a new tab - and by 
the time something will come up - he'll have tons of new tabs in Konqueror.

My suggestion - open a new tab first, and then get the data.

Speaking of tabbed browsing - there's still no keyboard shortcuts to switch 
between the tabbed windows in Konqueror unfortunately, which means - a mouse 
is a must here, and it's not comfortible at all..

Just my $.02

Thanks,
Hetz
