This is the kind of discussion I'm afraid of. kedit vs gedit, Epiphany 
vs Konqueror, etc. There is a boundary between simply apps that both 
desktops have an equivalent of and featureful apps such as a word 
processor, but it is hard to define. It could lead to lengthly 
discussions per case.

I understand your points and think you're right about having a dialog 
regarding this is a good thing. However I think this should only concern 
(or atleast begin with) very small applications such as kfind, 
kjobviewer, etc.
