As long as we are in wishlist mode -- all these features should work with
drag-n-drop IMHO.  So if I initiate a drag inside a document being viewed and
drop in my editor the editor should open the file for editing -- or if I drop
on the desktop a "Copy/Link/Move" option should be there.  In fact my view is
this sort of drag-n-drop should work not only in the viewer but in *all* KDE
programs.  So if I want to save a file instead of having to hit Ctrl-S (or
worse use the mouse), find the directory I want to save in (which may be open
in a view right next to me) and save, I can just drag-n-drop the document where
I want it saved :-).

Also it can make printing easy -- if I have a printing icon on my panel I can
drag the document to the printer and print it (OK, most apps have a toolbar
with a printer icon, but on small screens you may not be showing the printer --
using the "hide-away" panel can make this easier); or I can drag it to my
e-mail client and make it an attachment; or I can drag it to my browser and
display it; or I can drag it to my fax-machine icon and fax it -- ahh, the
possibilities.
