Even big ones need some love somewhere for example I feel that there 
wasn't much love that was given to the comment widget for dolphin as it 
doesn't handle the length  of the text in a user safety way. 
I will take matters in my own hands there maybe.

I think we solved that one by adding the folder view or the instant access 
though it sometimes still needs some clicky clicky to get where you want to 
be.

But there is always a way to extend this , right?

I find that the new dolphin features that show pictures/videos/pdf 
/text/music(i think) when you select them can do so already its just a matter 
of resizing the the info section a bit and *bam* you have a picture viewer.
