Hi,

I can remember the time when the kicker terminal sessions button behaved like 
many other buttons in kde: clicking it opened a "normal" terminal and keeping 
it pressed opened the menu with the different session choices.
I think then there was some discussion that this behaviour is not good and 
doesn't follow ui guidelines and is inconsistent and it was changed to the 
way as it is today: both clicking and keeping it pressed opens the menu, i.e. 
to open a simple terminal you have to click twice.

Now with kde 3.2 I think this kicker terminal sessions buttons is the one who 
behaves inconsistent to the rest of kde.
In konqueror the up, back and forward toolbar button and in kmail the check 
mail, reply and forward buttons all feature the old behaviour: clicking 
executes the default action and keeping pressed opens the menu.
Can we please revert the kicker terminal sessions button to this behaviour ?

Bye
Alex
