Not really. I set history to 50000 lines so the "not-yet-filled-history-
displays-blank"-bug hit me. ;-)

I know. Though, I can copy with that (just closing konsole as I would
know it was "my fault") and would really like to have a checkbox
"unlimited" below konsole's new "number of lines" lineedit.

Hmm, I really don't know if you understood my question. I mean I used
konsole without frame, scroll- and menubar for years (? ;-)) and
suddenly they re-appeared because the config file format changed.  All
users updating their KDE should get their old environment if possible
IOAO(*). Now those features did not really disappear but looking into
it, it seems to me that several options were moved from [options] to
[Desktop Entry]; namely "has frame=false", "schema=..syscolor.schema",
"defaultfont=..", "MenuBar=Disabled", "scrollbar=0" and all those,
which left me with a standard-KDE-installation-like konsole. :-(
