           Summary: new blank documents are unnecessarily opened when
                    closing a blank document
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kwrite-devel@kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde@holovaty.com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:          Linux

This bug is not horrendous, but it leads to an unintuitive user experience in Kate.

Simply put, when you close a blank "Untitled 1" document, it gets renamed to the \
"Untitled 2", and so on -- even when there are no other untitled documents open in \
the workspace.


How to reproduce:

1. Open Kate with no documents in the workspace (except for the default "Untitled \
1").

2. Close this "Untitled 1" document.

3. Note that the resulting blank document is now called "Untitled 2".

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 many times (e.g., by holding down (CTRL-W), and note that the \
blank document keeps getting renamed. "Untitled 85", "Untitled 86", etc. After a \
while this becomes comical.


Expected behavior:

The resulting blank document (after step 2) *should* still be called "Untitled 1", \
because at this point there is only one blank document open in the Kate workspace. \
This document is no different than the first "Untitled" document; therefore it should \
not be renamed "2".
