           Summary: 'Duplicate tab' is not consistent with 'duplicate
                    window'

        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: datschge@gmx.de


Version:           3.1.0-1.cvs20030310.1ark (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux

This is a bug related to the consistency of actions used in KDE apps thus critically affecting usability.

Duplicating a window means creating  a copy of the current window, including the same layout, locating and back history. Duplicating a tab doesn't follow this rule though. When you duplicate a tab you only get a new tab with the same location, but the back history of the new tab stays empty. So duplicating a window makes users not loosing a back history since the dubplicated window will take it over, the duplicated tab won't do that, and user might notice that too late. This is a very Bad Thing and needs to be corrected.
