KDE has many desktops, one of them being mostly Mouse/Keyboard driven. What can we do to make the things we know work in this paradigm work even better? How can we make better use of the bigger screens today's desktops have? At the same time, how well does our desktop work with netbooks?

In order to make any serious improvement in "first impressions" we need to list those seemingly small details that "annoy the hell" out of users. Let's get started!

'Details to improve

- KWallet asking three times for a password (wireless, IMAP email, POP email)

- Hotkeys don't work while submenu is opened!

- If all windows are minimised, they are unminimising when you start a new application

- Imposibility of creating hotkey combinations such as META+wheel, META+CTRL, META+ALT, META+SHIFT

- Plasmoids & Kickoff menu don't remember their coordinates

- Screen Edge action "Show Desktop" repetes forever - all windows blink when cursor is already in the corner

- Imposibility of removing "New Activity" plasmoid-button. Why I can't remove it if I don't use it?

-If double click interval =o (needed to prevent bug 298556) combobox is working only while mouse button is being hold

- There is an empty space (1 pix) between file name and file icon in file managers, clicking on wich does nothing
