I really don't get why you hold on to the argument that konqueror was 
replaced. Replace a file on your hard disk and you will see what replacing 
means, the old file is gone. Konqueror is still around, so it was not replaced 
but dolphin added. The default was changed, but that only affects new users 
anyway since KDe will not change your settings regarding the apps you set as 
default.

Then those people have to invest time/money to get what they want since 
"nobody" else cares, i.e. konq development is dead although it allegedly being 
a much better and popular app than the combination of tools available by 
default. That logic strikes me. :)

Oh – and the "default user" of linux and KDE did change over the last years 
hence the default user's goals changed.

Just curious, what other file managers act as viewers for e.g. PDFs?
