--- Comment #11 from Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas <rr.rosas at gmail.com> ---
I believe I understand why the feature has been removed... What if we changed
the way it works? Instead of allowing a single background-mode window, we could
ask for the global shortcut for a window to turn the current window a
background-mode one. If an the requested global shortcut is already assigned to
another Konsole window the action will fail. If the global shortcut is already
used by another application, a warning shows up asking for confirmation to
override the global shortcut. Once the global shortcut is set, it will work
only for that current window (detached tabs after setting the shortcut won't be
affected by it). That way we could have as many background windows as available
global shortcuts we want to use.

Would that work?
