I have, too.  For best results, you often have to clean the file by hand
afterwards.

We're always going to have that risk--we just need a sufficiently
different salamander (or heron or whatever).  There's probably
no one using a cartoony heron or a salamander with T-shaped
markings or . . . well, you get the idea.

I can't see us having a special release just for the mascot, and even
once we settle on something, tracking down every piece of artwork
with Konqui in it may take a while, so I'm guessing that it won't be
until after 14.0.1.
