So in Plasma we have icon launcher which uses KRun to open the applications http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=plasma-workspace.git&a=blob&h=a2a3f81d48ff72543d97c70b5e457b75087310b3&hb=f8e1012c7f1c9a8adfb42ff161ebec379e24a037&f=applets%2Ficon%2Fplugin%2Ficon_p.cpp

Now in case of launchers this is obvious that one want to launch that application and not do something else, so can we add some option to disable this confirmation box in KRun?

When the user clicks on an executable file, a [dialog](https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/media/uploaded/files/2014/09/12/0fa53887-666f-4121-9ec6-9f323d633d03__dialog.png) pops up which contains options to either open it or execute it. Clicking on execute runs the program in the background (dolphin's current behaviour).

The program can either be executed in the background or inside the embedded konsole or in an external terminal.
