--- Comment #38 from Mathieu Jobin <opensource at somekool.net> ---
I use KDE all day everyday and I love everything about it. this long lived bug
is my only pain point at the moment...

it would be great to just have it fixed in konsole. but it does not look like
its going to happen from the main devs.

the hard part I find when trying to rip this off and keeping vincenzo's split
work, was all apps using the kpart like kate and kdeveloper were crashing on
start up. so that would need fixing.

you can look at my fork on github which I'm sure I linked above.

then xliiv started to port the fork to KDE Framework 5 world, but I'm not sure
its anywhere ready.

one solution that I thought should be much easier, is to just embed the kpart
in an entirely new applications.

There is this super cool app https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term
which is actually based on Konsole, with some very impressive effects.

so we could be taking example from him, use his
https://github.com/Swordfish90/qmltermwidget and make a superlight app with
decent split screen based on Konsole.

I think that's pretty much the two ways to go around it.

pick your poison, I'll be happy to help as well, but I can't take this alone.
