I agree with the rest of your cleaning ideas (especially about desktop context 
menu, which is now simply absurde in my opinion) but I don't agree about 
these 2 points:

No, because the "open in new tab" and "open in new window" is something I 
would like to have quickly. Moreover, I think that RMB click in Konqueror FM 
is almost *always* used to open that particular folder in another way, or to 
get its properties. So IMO it must remain the same.

You are again wrong, IMO, cause "Actions" sub-menu is something more than a 
"Open" enhanced. You can put almost everything in the Action menu (like 
sending file via Bluetooth, attach a file to an email, zip a directory etc 
etc), so it definitely shouldn't be under "open"

The rest is correct, in my opinion, and I hope your suggestions will be 
applied :)
