There is yet another issue which makes the current design counterproductive. If you click on such several links, and you go to browser first tab and you try to work you will be auto switched each time new address kicks in. So the current design force user to wait for all links to be opened. Working is possible but inefficient. Not everything can be viewed in a web browser. This option would introduce breakages, when clicking on a link to a type of document which doesn't have a KPart. Or when the preferred webbrowser isn't konqueror. With konqueror you would get an empty tab offering you to launch an application - not really an efficient way to do this. The "flying window" effect is solved by the default job notification stuff being in plasma nowadays. Although I personally still prefer the flying windows ;) Sorry, I was wrong, there is actually a way to do this. When you configure a Browser Application in the component chooser, all HTTP urls are sent to it. You could just configure Konqueror (or kfmclient openURL) as the browser application. |
