Because kmailrc is only one file.  I realize that the kmail directory is only 
one directory, and one accident can kill that as easy to kill one file.  
However, applications generally open one file at a time for writing (like 
kmail could for kmailrc or the kmail-filters file) instead of opening a 
directory inode.

We are all very close to an application which opens and edits the kmailrc file 
a lot.  What application holds the directory inode open for a long period of 
time?
