Review request for Dolphin, KDE Usability and David Faure.


Bugs: 275405
    http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275405


Repository: kde-baseapps


Description
-------

This patch allows the user to execute (in background, within the embedded terminal, external terminal) or open an executable file (scripts, desktop files...). 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 [settings dialog](https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/media/uploaded/files/2014/09/12/cd4d14d3-dd82-4c2c-8c0a-c2a428c78903__settings.png) has further options to fine-tune how the file is executed. The program can either be executed in the background or inside the embedded konsole or in an external terminal.

In case there is a process already running in the embedded terminal, with [user's permission](https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/media/uploaded/files/2014/09/12/c5d7843a-099a-43d4-a2e1-6ce429623866__replace.png) it will be terminated and the selected program will be started.
