Two questions about Konqueror:
1. Is Dolphin now as capable as Konqueror?
2 If not, can Konqueror be chosen as a standard file browser/manager just like in KDE 3? I would assume such is the case.
When I tried Dolphin, it lacked sorely in functionality. In Konqueror 3, there are ten different view modes, not so in Dolphin.
Further, in Konqueror 3 there is a Create Image Gallery function. That was nowhere to be found in Dolphin's opensuse 11.1.
Does the latest Dolphin now show the meta data for any given file, like what Konqueror does in KDE 3?
In Konqueror 3, one can easily get to the meta info simply by right clicking on "Properties," and then Meta Info. You then get a long, informative and valuable list of meta data, like this one:

Does Konqueror 4 now include all these functions and more, so that it is finally as functional as Konqueror 3?
That Konqueror 3 function, which was absent in both Konqueror 4 and the Dolphin of 11.1, gives Meta Info for all sorts of files directly from the file browser.

As you can see, this is extremely useful.
Has the functionality been downgraded? If so, it has to be restored as soon as possible.

Like above I too find Dolphin lacking in features. I tried it in both 4.1 and the factory version 4.2.x. The only thing I want is a powerful file manager and if web functionality is excluded, I could not care less.
