mmb pasting in Konqueror

(sorry, just picking up on this one point, as hardware *does*
 affect usability, you can't just pretend it doesn't exist
 otherwise we can just pretend that everyone on the planet
 has 1600x1200 screens and we can all just stop moaning about
 dialog sizes)

so, who do you plan to fix this real world problem? we gonna
design a kde mouse?, i'd love to see a fix and a simple drop
down menu to select the mmb action konqi's setting would not
harm anyone.

more serious is the fact that 1) no other application does
this in x, and while you say this is the usual action of the 
mmb, it is far from.     and, 2) this does something *very*
different and more importantly *useful* in windows, a feature
we are for certain missing. (scrolling for people without wheel)
