I just tried it and I quite like it, nice work! I have few suggestions for
improvements - first of all don't hide and show the popup when you change
folder, I wasn't sure what's happening when I clicked some folder in it, I
thought Dolphin is being opened and then suddenly the same popup but
different size showed up. So keep the popup visible all the time and don't
change the size, keep it to some sane default.
The scrollbar actually work the other way around - dragging it up scrolls
down, dragging down scrolls up. That's inconsistent with the rest of the
whole desktop.
Also there's this project called Homerun which implements exactly this and
it works quite nicely, even with breadcrumb navigation. Maybe you can
contact Aurelien, the author, and share code/collaborate in the
development? Here's the project:

I fixed the problems which you specified the last time:<br>
- icon decreasing on the panel (attachment - smallicon.png);<br>

Now what else do I need to do to enter StackFolder in KDE 4.10?<br>

I remind that StackFolder is an independent applet and placed in a playground repo \

Originally StackFolder is a fork of FolderView applet, that was redesigned to look \
like MacOS X Stask utility. It allow to browse the stack of folders and quick \
access to files and also may interact with another Rosa's utility - Klook to \
