SUMMARY
When showing the attribute "size", dolphin sums items for folders, instead of displaying the actual diskspace (size) of items used by files and subfolders within. I feel, that this is counterintuitive. When a user wants to check, what takes up space - ergo, what diskspace is consumed by files or folder at view - it should show exactly that, size. Not count of items.

Size is not equal to count of items.

Proposal: Add additional attribute called itemcount, make size show size.
