Great!

I also only noticed this very old report here due to Nate writing about.

So a few things:

- I remember having used Quadkonsole many years ago too and it was very nice.

I was also using yakuake and yakuake is quite cool on its own.

A few months or so I tried out the konsole split-view (or whatever it was
called) and the behaviour confused me completely, since I expected it to be
more to quadkonsole; and possibly to yakuake (although I can not say whether
there are marked differences, but from my limited testing, the behaviour in
yakuake in regards to splitting/modifying the views/panes, was less confusing
than in KDE konsole).

I have not yet tested the changes - so I rely mostly on what Nate wrote at
https://pointieststick.com/2019/03/31/kde-usability-productivity-week-64/ - but
from the screenshot, it indeed seems to be a lot closer to what quadkonsole
originally did. I can't say yet whether both seem to do the same (my memory is
also dim) but the change seems to be a LOT closer in making KDE konsole behave
more similarly to quadkonsole. So I wanted to add this perspective too, even if
it is ... hmm + 10 years late. But better a late comment than no comment.
