           Summary: drag and dropped files followed by spaces
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.6.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: giantpune at gmail.com


Version:           2.6.2 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

When you select some files in your file manager (such as dolphin) and drag them
into konsole using your mouse and drop them, konsole will insert the path of
the file that you dropped.  When you drop multiple files into konsole, it adds
all the filenames, and puts a space between them.

When I do this with other operating systems (such as ubuntu using its default
terminal), it automatically adds a space after the last filename it inserts. 
Konsole doesn't behave this way.  If you want to drag files 1 at a time, you
have to drag one, then click konsole to give it focus, type a space, then click
your file browser to give it focus, ect.  

I think that it would be more intuitive, and much more user friendly if konsole
could automatically add that last little space in there for me.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Open dolphin file browser.
2) launch konsole
3) select a file in dolphin and drag it with your mouse into konsole

Actual Results:  
Konsole inserts the filename.

Expected Results:  
I would like it to insert the filename followed by a space.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.38-10-generic
Compiler: cc
