Affected Kubuntu 12.04 also.

That for reporting. I can confirm that issue.

The problem is the restored konsole process has dbus address like "org.kde.konsole-<pid>", while the "--new-tab" option only works with the konsole process owning dbus address "org.kde.konsole" in current implementation.

[Developer note]

The related commit is http://commits.kde.org/konsole/6b811ec2b6e4fbf459af9765c9ead506c9a0cd3c, which makes konsole avoid the "single process" model when some Qt/KDE options are given. See bug 179010 and bug 297801 for the reason behind that change.

Maybe I should create a component dedicate for all those issues related with this "single process" model.
