There will be many 'temptations' like this going forward. I think the key is to
stick to the following kde3 core values when evaluating features:

(1) Is it more efficient?

  (a)  can you do more with less keystrokes or mouse clicks?
  (b)  does it improve code execution time?

(2) Does it improve usability?

  (a)  not from a "Gee-Whiz" standpoint, but can it provide real features to
benefit the average user --or-- provide a better interface for those with
impairments.

(3) Above All - Always Remember

   -- A FEATURE IS A BUG IF IT CANNOT BE TURNED OFF!
