BTW: This also affects interoperability with kpanel. -- kpanel refuses to
accept drops of .kdelnk files on it that do not start with the line 
"# KDE Config File". Furthermore this release shows the following problems
on my system:

+) Setting the position of kpanel with kcmkpanel does not work (it works
   ok with kpanel's internal configuration dialog, BTW.

   The problem is that kcmpanel's "panel.cpp" does not seem to contain
   code that sets the variables "location" and "taskbar" according to
   the status of the respective button groups. -- So I assume that this
   is a "known problem"... ;-) 

+) When I click on the "trash" entry in kpanel's   I get the following kfm error message:

   The requested action
   GET trash:/
   is not implemented yet

   Seems as if the communication protocol that is used here has been
   extended recently. 

Just wanted to let you know...

     Christian
