Problem is still there with 0.6.1 in Kubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat.

I agree with the reporters: if a link is clicked, prinziple of least surprise
if an external app is used:

        a window is shown on the same desktop with the loading/loaded URL
visible


Bug reproduce:

    open rekonq on desktop 2
    open akregator on desktop 1
    click with middle mouse on a URL

-> new rekonq icon in taskbar shows activity (another bug see #244202), then
nothing (visual) happens.    Behind the scene rekonq loaded the page
successfully in another desktop (2) in a (not aktive/show  :( ) tab.

IMHO we have to different use cases and needs different defaults:

           clicking on a link in rekonq -> new tab, not aktive. That's fine and
           customizeable if one does not like it.

           click on a html link in anohter apps or using rekonq %URL% on
command line ->
           a window on top of the other is shown with URL loaded in and shown.
