'main tree' ?

ok, take the final decision, then ! :)
(You're doing much more work on konqueror than me, so you're the real
maintainer ! But I'm still listed as the one, so that you don't lose
your time answering to bug reports ... :)))

For that precise matter, the view-follows-view issue, I really didn't follow
the discussion very much. 
What about a small box in the konq frame, like has been suggested, but not
for
draggging and dropping. Rather a box with a 'link' icon, and if you press it
on both views, then they are linked. (this means you can't link 2 iconviews
to 2 treeviews respectively, but I think it's good enough for everyday use).
And : if there is only one treeview shown, then clicking on a link icon
in the iconview automatically clicks the link icon in the treeview.
This is just my 2 euros, not the final maintainer decision !
