So what is the solution now? It seems that in trunk (and also in KDE 4.2) there
is now a way to open a tab with the mouse (double click on tab bar) but no way
to close it with the mouse again (no close button, no context menu). This is
surely annoying. 

Dolphin also has tab close on middle click in trunk now, Firefox has it,
Konqueror can be configured to have it... maybe this should really be a system
wide setting. For me it just makes no sense to middle click on a tab to paste.
Why would you even middle click near the tab bar to paste when you can click
anywhere in the window? Maybe there could be a warning dialog with an option to
"not show this warning again". But the current behavior is very unsatisfactory.
If there is a way to open a tab with the mouse, there has to be a way to close
it with the mouse, as well.

My first choice would really be a system wide setting (I'd also like to middle
click to close tabs in Akregator, e.g.) but if this is not an option, make it a
Konsole setting or at least bring back the KDE3 behavior (with open and close
buttons)

Thank you
