Talk about visual cues.  The more I look at it the more I see that KDE
is
looking a lot like Netscape.  This is good in that I get the feeling
such
things as this will be implemented.  It will just take time.  Right now
I
think the code is frozen and all they are doing is fixing bugs and
implementing those features that give you a "this feature has not been 
implemented yet" message.

More Netscapeisime ?  This is not a bad idea, and again something the 
programers probably have in mind but have given a lower priority.
