It would be very useful, for touchscreen devices especially, to have an option to have the +/- file selection buttons be permanently visible; this would allow users of touchscreen devices to select particular files easily.  Right now these buttons only appear on mouseover, which is impractical for non-mouse input devices.  I imagine it would be easy to implement, and it certainly would make Dolphin the most useful file manager for touchscreen devices.
