Konqueror - web broswer tab mouseover - show close icon like Quanta+?

All,

  I have not really used the web browser in the past few years since parts have
been broken in 3.5.10, etc..., but with TDE, I wanted to kick the tires and see
if it could be made to be as good as it was several years ago. Not that it was
ever 'great', but just to make sure it was a 'darn solid alternative -- out of
the box'.

  One thing I've notice tonight is that when I hover over open tabs just below
the menubar, the tab icon no longer changes to a 'close tab' icon like it does
on Quanta+. I can't recall if it ever did, but it would be a nice feature to
move over if it could be. There is the Advanced tab setting to 'show close
button instead of website icon', but I don't want to see the close button
instead of the icon all the time, just when it is hovered.

  Checking the function of that setting in TDE tonight, it seems broken because
regardless of whether you choose 'show close button...' or not, nothing changes
on tabs themselves in konqueror. Small issue, but does this need to filed as a
bug?? As far as I can tell, it's not working ... and that is a bug ...

  What I need to know is how is it supposed to work. Looking at the setting,
when I enable 'show close button instead of website icon' I expect to see the
close icon (X) instead of the website icon -- IIRC, that's the way it used to
work. Is that what is supposed to happen in TDE konqueror??
