Yeah, I agree with that. When I started on a seperate browser and file 
manager at the end of the day I started thinking "what's the point". 
The cool thing about us is that we solve problems. Period. Using two 
different applications to solve is something what almost everyone does 
because no one feels like spending time on doing it properly. We can 
actually do it properly. It will still involve rewritting probably a 
lot of Konqy but if we want to do it, we might as well do it in a 
really innovative fashion (you know the hell "pushing the innovation" 
thingy, instead of stepping back and following others)
