--- Comment #3 from Jekyll Wu <adaptee gmail com>  2011-09-14 13:37:27 ---
The fact is KDE3 konsole ships a couple of profiles (shell,mc,screen) by
default and only lists profiles whose command is available in current system.
The KDE4 konsole only ships one profile(shell) by default and lists all
profiles even when the corresponding command is not available in current system
.

So the KDE4 konsole looks not as handy/smart as the KDE3 konsole in this case.
But I think the KDE3 way has one big problem: it might surprise/confuse/scare
users. After installing mc/screen, users will find new profiles
"coming-from-nowhere". Or, after removing mc/screen, users will find old
profiles 'disappearing-for-no-reason'. The KDE4 konsole do not have this
problem because it behaves in a stupid way.

I think creating a new profile for mc/screen manually is really easy, so the
lost handy feature is really not a big deal, especially when taking into
account the potential problem mentioned above.
