Description greatbunzinni 2011-01-12 04:52:37 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

When spawning a new Dolphin window (ctrl+N) the new instance does not duplicate the state of the original window, which means that it doesn't duplicate states such as current directory and split window state. 

It would be great that when a user creates a new Dolphin window through the ctrl+N shortcut key the new window copied the original window's state.

Reproducible: Always
