This is something that a lot of people have been asking for, and I think it makes sense. There are two ways I could see this working: 1. Automatically, by having kconfig write apps. rc files to ~/.config/[app name]/ automatically, instead of ~/.config. When reading, if that location doesn't exist; fall back to looking for the file in ~/.config 2. Introduce a new API to do this and deprecate the old one for KF6, so all KDE apps have to ope into it 3. Introduce a new API for this and don't deprecate the old one, so it remains opt in My preference would be #1 or #2. Oh I forgot we already have Bug 422529. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 422529 *** |
