KDE4 is defective by design.
When it is not possible to add to the panel manual hide buttons by adding few lines of code, and even by more serious hacking - defective by design.
When it is not possible to set the panel clock font size for the hour and date independently - defective by design.
When it is not possible to set the panel size by exact number, only by dragging - defective by design.
When it is not possible to mount devices onto the desktop - defective by design.
When it is not possible to remove some idiot icon from the corner - defective by design.
I guess the list goes on.
It does...
It's not possible to do most of the silly minor things you list because no developer sees it as a priority. ... The only problem you have with KDE4 is that it's not KDE3.
Because all those things Istvan listed were included parts of what made people like KDE3 better, parts lost in KDE4 because the KDE wizards decided they needed to start all over from scratch instead of fixing things that caused trouble fixing things. I do wonder why Ilya is sticking with KDE3 instead of what I would think to be less work in the form of the TDE project. In January email between my normal Earthlink email account and the tde mailing list got some bogus spam filter halting both directions, so I have no idea what's been going on there lately without making a trip to its archives. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
