In KDE 3.0 the cookies aren't being deleted until the user selects "Apply" =
or=20
"OK". This gives the user the possibility to cancel his/her changes in case=
=20
of a mistake so I think it is not needed to ask for confirmation first.=20

It is possible that this was different in KDE 2.2.x

Thank you for your feedback. I close this report.

Cheers

Waldo, I think it is a bad design. Settings dialog is huge in Konqueror, so it is really not useful to force user to drop all (I mean _all_, not all cookies) changes just to undo last cookie deletion.

Note, that [cancel] button applies to whole settings dialog, not only cookies.

On the other hand I am wondering if such big beast should not be working in similar mode as KControl (confirm/cancel per each module/tab).
