Then they will not have configurable web-shortcuts, or if we really want that, we need a widget for doing so, but not if it means making things more difficult for the "regular KDE workspace user". I.e. the app-specific configuration should sit on top of the global configuration, so that KDE-worskpace users can set things globally and standalone-app users can set things from within the app. This is the "solution that makes everyone happy" by making things over- configurable. The alternative, web shortcuts not being configurable unless you use a KDE workspace, is IMHO valid too. But worsening the experience for our primary target audience in order to possibly improve the experience of our secondary target audience is IMHO a bad move. -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Working on KDE Frameworks 5 _______________________________________________ Kde-frameworks-devel mailing list Kde-frameworks-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel
