Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.4.4) OS: Linux Konqueror still opens new folders in the existing Konqueror window after "Open folders in separate windows" has been enabled. Reproducible: Always
This issue can be traced to the very beginning of KDE4, i.e. was not fixed for nearly 3 years.
I would say that it is a blocking feature for me as I always use spatial mode whereever on Gnome, Windows or KDE3.

This appears to actually be a dolphin bug, or rather a not implemented feature. The file konqueror.kcfg in the konqueror sources says at line 30: <entry key="AlwaysNewWin" type="Bool"> <!--TODO dolphinpart--> Checking the konqueror source, this is definitely what the option in question sets, and checking my own config files shows that the option is set properly. But there does not appear to be any reference to this option anywhere in the dolphin sources, which means the option can't do anything. I've added Peter Penz to the CC since he appears to be the dolphin maintainer. I think this bug should be re-classified as a dolphin bug since that is how it is classified in the source code.
duplicate of bug 207309 ?
I think you're right, thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 207309 ***
