Hi Richard,

I'm glad you like it.

"cut" would be difficult since that would need to be done by the application 
or shell running inside konsole and I don't think there is a good way to tell 
it that it should cut/remove the selected text.

What should select all do? Select the entire screen? Or also the history?
Why would you like to have this?

Cheers,
Waldo
