As stated in my previous mail, I don't believe there's any way to make a 
distinction between important or unimportant jobs, in the case of kio jobs, 
besides maybe waiting a couple of seconds before showing one to filter out the 
really short (and that way probably irrelevant) jobs. Maybe it would be useful 
to add an api option to kio to mark jobs as important or unimportant. Or we 
could require every app to register even kio jobs to kuiserver themselves, but 
that would be unrealistic for 4.2.

Not here.... what version are you running and can you provide a backtrace? 
Thanks :)

Ey, I noticed the cursor staying a hand before, but I never understood how to 
reproduce it, it just happened to me every once in a while. This will help me 
a lot in fixing this problem, thanks. :)
