I've committed some changes that should at least improve the visual aspect of 
all this. That means it may not be faster but it should look better because 
some screen updates while loading the register where eliminated. Unfortunately 
we can't change the fact that the register is re-loaded at every data change 
operation without some major re-writing. But the plan is to get a stable KDE4 
release, without Qt3 support, with the same features as the KDE3 version and 
release that so people can have something usable. After that we can throw out 
the bad concepts like reloading everything at every small change and start 
from scratch but that will take a lot of time (which we are very short of). We 
try to do out best with the existing codebase so keep sending your valuable 
feedback.
