You're right, and we completely overlooked that fact when implementing
the "default profile" stuff. Since it's kfmclient that is in the K menu,
it's completely useless.
I think we should simply get rid of it, and ...

... and implementing "show dirtree" and "show embedded konsole"
(as well as the view mode, etc.) as global options, i.e. if you
"show dirtree", it will appear for any konq window you open later on,
unless you decide to switch it off. (Applying the "no Save Settings" rules
from the UI guide). This would match your comment above.

I'll get around cleaning this settings stuff this weekend - but I'd
be interested in knowing Simon's opinion about getting rid of the
"default profile" stuff, since he implemented it ;-)
