Annoying keyboard remapping

[Rigo Wenning]

Dear all, 

I very often use the CVS cervisia-part of konqueror. W3C has organized all its 
web-site with an underlying cvs. It is very convenient to navigate through the 
pages, edit and just take the cvs-view to upload the changes. 

But over time, konqueror's behavior has degraded a lot in usability. In KDE 
3.5, there was an icon that appeared in the main bar when navigating inside a 
CVS folder. This disappeared and all my efforts to restore it failed. 

Then I found that one could just type alt-v-v-e and the cervisia-part would 
start. But switching from KDE4.3 to KDE4.5 (Akonadi/Nepomuk is just a pain 
with no advantage because of missing interface for search) the behavior 
changed again. Now one has to do alt-v then use the navigation keys right and 
down to come to "cervisia" and hit return. This is not a problem if you do it 
once a day. But for me, the keyboard interaction becomes a pain as the keys 
required are far from each other and instead of 4 strokes you need 9 strokes. 

Are there any plans to restore the usability that KDE 3.5 was famous for? Who 
decides those changes thus making KDE a moving target for power users? Or is 
this just a bug? If yes, how can I fix.

Best, 

Rigo
