But only if the user never ends up using an instance for web browsing that =
was=20
started in file manager mode and vice versa. Which would basically mean tha=
t=20
Konqueror the file manager and Konqueror the web browser would appear as tw=
o=20
different apps to the user.
If the user can do the "other" thing in a profile but he can't change the=20
associated settings for that "other" thing because they are not there, it=20
would be really confusing/annoying.
