In file manager mode konqueror uses the icon of the currently highlighted file as an application icon. I guess some people find this usefull, otherwise nobody would have gone to the trouble of implementing it. I must say that I find this somewhat annoying as I cannot quickly pick konqueror in a list of open windows (e.g. the task bar) any more. It has some (sort of random, depending on what I selected last; I might not remember) icon and the window's name starts with "file:/home/..." (which is also true for e.g. kdvi. I think there should be an option to set the icon in file manager mode to a fixed value.
