What a pity I only read this mail after my own posting; I agree with Germain 
100% here (from the mostly OK-ish habit adjustment, which is not very 
seamless anymore if you work with KDE 3 here, and KDE 4 there, to the mouse 
traveling after deciding for a different action), and I think he gives very 
good reasons for his observations.
