[Konsole-devel] "confirm quit with open sessions" and root sessions

Hi,
if I have a "builtin" root shell in konsole running, I can't simply close the
window.
If I have a normal shell in konsole, where I entered "su -" manually, I can
close konsole.
If konsole would simply exit, wouldn't the "builtin" root shell also exit,
since it is a child of konsole ?
I'd find it much less annoying if the option "confirm quit..." would also
effect the handling of root shells, i.e. only stop exiting with "not all
sessions could be closed" if the "confirm quit..." option is enabled.
Any objections ?
I also don't see any security problems, if the user is able to click the
window-close button, he is also able to switch to the already running root
shell and do whatever he wants to.
Bye
Alex
