Am I missing something with konqueror, because it appears konqueror doesn't have the same features that dolphin has such as its tagging system and split panel view. Also the crumb browsing is something missing from konqueror as well.

One last question, has it been determined yet that tabs are useless for filemanagers? if so what are the reasons given for it being uselss?

i don't know.. the solution to every question of difference is not "make it an
option!"

there are such things as "design decisions". the question here is: what is the
benefit of tabs in a file manager? what is the use case target for dolpin? do
the two answers there overlap?

imho, no.

konqueror is there for file management with tabs. keep dolphin simple. 0.02
