Well, I didn't even know of it. I use the kicker special button for accessing 
bookmarks.
However, I see no reason to remove it.
My colleague (only runs windows XP though) has a notorious resistance to 
keyboard shortcuts and uses right clicks all the time and navigates quick 
like a reptile through submenus. I can't stand it myself, and use keyboard 
shortcuts for anything I can configure that way.

Thus, My point is, there is no reason to remove it. Some people are simply 
like the fish in water when it comes to right clicking. But I will probably 
never use it myself.

Instead, anytime I have to click something, I want it to be a large bloaty 
Icon, which is why I keep all maximum size kicker buttons (even the K-menu) 
in a left edge autohiding panel, and have only small applets I don't klick 
often in an always visible bottom edge panel. (system tray, clock, ksysguard, 
taskbar, storage media,  etc.)



One derivative subject on this matter is:
Why are the configurable shortcuts to the left in an open URL dialog only 
accessible from there? I would like them to appear among other bookmars as 
well, so I need not synchronise them by hand.

That was two opinions in one unnecessarily lengthy email.

Cheers,
