Therefore, the changes in DolphinMainWindow and the 'readSettings()' slot are not needed either. You could just add m_controller->setExpandOnly(true) in FoldersPanel just after the controller is initialised.

I can happen that a folder gets expanded and activated at the same time in Details View (you can see that it has been expanded by going 'back'). Better write 'else if (!m_expandOnly)'.

It's closely related to 'autoActivationDelay', so it makes sense to give it a similar name, maybe 'autoActivationBehavior', which takes an enum type 'AutoActivationBehaviour' (similar to SelectionBehavior, look at kitemlistcontroller.h) that has the values 'ActivationAndExpansion' (the default) and 'ExpansionOnly' (which will be used for the Folders Panel).

I appreciate such suggestions to improve the code quality -> In addition to that I can learn smth. new with every commit :) (One great thing about open source software)
