Patches are always accepted if you'd like to port over a 3.5 feature you can't live without.
Or you could just accuse us of trying to "dumb down" the desktop, that's cool too I guess...

That's weird, Konqueror still works for me, hmm.
> KDE 4's new start menu is an insane joke.
Hey look, another comment which KDE developers can do nothing to fix. How should I submit
this to bugs.kde.org?
Problem: "kickoff menu is an insane joke."
How to reproduce: "...?"
Expected behavior: "The jokes should be funny, not insane."
I mean wtf?
The *real* insane joke was that Alt-F1 didn't work in KDE 4.0.0. Honestly I thought kickoff
was one of the much better features about KDE 4. Luckily the old-style menu is still
available.

Any way of mentioning what specifically is in that set of things kicker does that Plasma does
not? Or is this just continuing a trend?
