Description Jeff Long 2013-05-13 21:20:31 UTC
I had many open konsole windows running a variety of processes (browsers, etc.).  I accidentally right-clicked the konsole button in the kde taskbar and chose Close.   All of my konsole windows and child processes vanished without asking me for confirmation.  That seems a bit dangerous.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have enough konsole windows running such that it groups konsole into a single taskbar button
2. in the KDE taskbar,right click konsole and choose Close
3.
Actual Results:  
all konsole windows and child processes disappear.


Expected Results:  
KDE/konsole should ask for confirmation before proceeding.

KDE4/konsole is no longer maintained.

FTR, current versions of konsole have a KMessageBox that asks the user to confirm closing the window when:
- there are multiple tabs in a window
- there is a process running in a window with a single tab.
