> So, where is this protracted debate leading? 

I am happy for the original request - storing the window size per-profile and
not auto-saving the window size on exit to be implemented.  I believe the
default behavior should stay as it currently is - with Konsole remembering the
last used window size on exit.  We just need to sort out the best way to do
this in the UI.

My suggestion would be to add a three-way radio button in the Edit Profile
dialog:

Window size:

[X] Remember the last used window size for this profile
[ ] Use a fixed size. [Select Size Button]
    [  ] rows by [   ] columns 
    [ Use Current Window Size ]

Where the user can enter a specific number of rows and columns or pre-fill them
by clicking the [Use Current Window Size] button.

The other use case mentioned above was changing the size of an existing window
to some pre-set.  I'm not sure where best to put this without causing confusion
between settings which are used for new windows or tabs (currently accessed via
Settings -> Edit Current Profile) and settings which are temporary and only
take effect in the current tab (such as the Scrollback dialog accessed via
Scrollback -> Scrollback Options)
