           Summary: There is no way to open new identical session in a tab
                    with menu (Shortcut is working fine)
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.5.2
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bubble at hoster-ok.com


Version:           2.5.2 (using KDE 4.5.2) 
OS:                Linux

It became impossible (starting with 4.5.0) to run new identical session in a
new tab using menu navigation. "New window" menu item opens such session, but
there is no way to select "New Tab" because it was transformed into a submenu
with list of preconfigured profiles.
I use .desktop shortcuts to open sessions to remote hosts with ssh. Before
4.5.0 I was able to press New Tab menu item to open new session to host. Now
I'm not.
Ctrl-Shift-T keyboard shortcut works just fine, but Ctrl-Shift is often used to
switch keyboard layout (and most people are unwilling to change their habits),
so this do not work either (and only recent versions of Xorg provide separate
LShift-LCtrl and RShift-RCtrl for layout switch).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run konsole -e ssh user at host
2. Try to open a new tab with the same command run by using menu

Actual Results:  
The only options are to open pre-defined profiles (which actually lead to shell
on local host).

Expected Results:  
New session to the same host in a new tab.
