Currently in dolphin, when you click to open an executable file, it will execute it. But sometime, that file is a script and I want to edit this script using my file edit. And it may mess everything if this script contains some harmful command. In fact, I will never try to execute something in dolphin, I will always open a terminal and execute in that. There is a workaround for this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/179155/how-to-force-dolphin-to-not-execute-executable-files But I don't want to edit files under /usr. In conclusion, I hope 1. There is a setting for (a) always execute executable files (b) never execute executable files (c) pop a dialog to ask just like nautilus in gnome 2. When click to open a executable file and (c) is chosen in the setting, dolphin will ask you to a. execute it b. edit it. c. cancel d. [checkbox] remeber my choice. Reproducible: Always
