Bug 102488

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs

Listen, you guys are not paying attention to even to most of your obvious problems.  your program is repleat with rather significant bugs.  Every bug needs to be quashed as soon as they are reported.  No bug should remain unfixed no matter what your priority is.  You will fix more bugs by addressing them immediately rather than dumping them into a database and not paying attention to the facts that your bugs negatively reflect not just on you but on the linux community as a whole.  This means you fix these bugs.  When we see a bug such as the one i have reported it is obvious that you have had this bug in your system for a very long time.  By not addressing it  you have shown us you have little committment to addressing bugs when they come up.  Your program has, over the years, grown to bloat status +1 and this has caused you to have an extremely buggy system.  This is an unacceptable situation, especially for the linux community because when we see it and get upset at such a thing companies and other organizations see it and also get upset and won't adopt it.  Your major problem is that you think having a structure for managing bugs is more important than fixing the bugs.  This should not be the case.  You state you fixed thousands of bugs in this latest release but you left thousands that should have been fixed.

How do you reproduce the behavior.  Open your home folder.  Select the option to open another folder in a new tab.  After that tab is open right click and let up on the tab that you just created.  You get a new tab.  In order to resolve this you must hold down the right mouse button and click close.  This is completely abnormal behavior for any windowed system.  Rightclicking the first click should not automatically select the first menu item and cause it to execute.

You have this same problem on your desktop when the mouse is too close to the top of the screen.  This is why I know you know about this bug.  It is an interface issue and the interface functionality is extremely important to the acceptance.  If you can't get it right we can't promote linux to others to get it adopted in the business and home environments.
