--- Comment #4 from Jekyll Wu <adaptee at gmail.com> ---
I have a mixed feeling about this issue.

On one hand, I can still remember I was also somewhat annoyed by (now
accustomed with) this linespaing issue after one freetype update.

On the other hand, I generally don't want to touch the code related with font
rendering in konsole. Font rendering is one hot spot for bug reports, and I
don't want to introduce another parameter to make the situation more complex
before I have better understanding of the existing code. 

According to the git history, this configureable linespacing feature has a long
history.  It was initially introduced by commit 58be7a62, 11 years ago. Most
related code are still there, it is just the corresponding profile option is
not defined and exposed.

So the compromise for now is define a profile option but do not provide UI for
controlling it.
