  ...Consistently bad! :) KMail is wrong too, because press-and-hold to show a 
popup menu is just a bad UI. BTW other apps of ours like Spectacle do it this 
way.

  I don't have trouble hitting the arrow of a split button with my laptop's 
touchscreen. It's not the easiest thing in the world, but it's hardly 
impossible. However this is a real issue--for mouse users too, not just 
touch--so it seems like we should make the arrow part of a split button wider 
in Breeze. And/or we can make this menu in Okular not be hidden behind a split 
button at all, and always open its popup on click/touch. But I don't think it 
makes sense to revert this just to make things better for the very small number 
of touch users who actually figured out that you need to press-and-hold to open 
the menu (I never did until I became a KDE developer).
