My point was,
it seems a bad idea to use Konqueror as both a web browser
and a file manager, even though it's possible, and even though you can
create different profiles. Somebody else may know better than I, and I
will listen. But my gut instinct says, choose one or the other, web
browser or file manager. Don't use Konqueror for both.
Why not?
If I like Konq's file browser functionality, and I like Konq's web
browser functionality, why do I have to pick only one?
That seems a bit like saying that I can use a spoon for eating soup, or
for eating breakfast cereal, but I can only choose one. If I choose to
eat cereal with the spoon, then I have to use chopsticks or a fork for
the soup.
A more appropriate metaphor would be: One ought not use the same tub of water
for cooking, bathing, cleaning the floor and bathroom, etc. Better to have
separate tubs. Or maybe others are not so fastidious as myself?
