Hi

As this bug has not been fixed as of  KDE 4.8.3 (I have checked openSUSE 12.2
beta1), I decide to share with simple workaround: just disable focus stealing
prevention for konsole only. There are two ways to do it:

1. Open konsole, right click on title bar → Advanced → Special Application
Settings → Appearance & Fixes tab → check Focus Stealing Prevention and set it
to "None"
2. Go to System Settings → Window Behavior → Window Rules → click New → in
"Window Class" check "Exact Match" and write "konsole" → in Appearance & Fixes
tab → check Focus Stealing Prevention and set it to "None"

Konsole windows opened from Dolphin will be focused. I don't think this
workaround has any drawbacks (after all, if we open konsole window, then we
want it to have focus, right?).

May I suggest to provide that setting by default in kwin? If I am not mistaken,
kwin already provides similar setting for xv.
