--- Comment #3 from Antonis Kanouras <antonis+kdebugs@metadosis.gr> ---
TL;DR: The feature works fine as is; rant follows.

Please don't remove this awesome feature. Yakuake is cute, but can't be
compared to Konsole proper and its featureset.

Consider my use case:

I usually have just one maximised Konsole window, which I like to be able to
restore and move around at will.
I'm also using (read: can't live without) keyboard shortcuts to launch any of
10+ different sessions.

The last period I remember myself using multiple terminal windows on a daily
basis was before tabbed terminal emulators made their appearance.
The only time I'm using multiple windows nowadays is when I have multiple
monitors connected, and, even in that case, it is useful that only one window
is affected by the background mode.
I should also note that Yakuake doesn't support multiple windows either.

At least with the Kate/KWrite thing, one is a proper subset of the other.
