Right, consistency with other KDE applications is important, even if we have
never seen the HIGs finished. Not having the option in menu looks like a lesser
evil to me. Moreover I have feeling that KDE apps will change these defaults
while heading to what would be KDE 5; e.g. see the QMLish interfaces promoted
by Nuno, modernized Dolphin menu and finally -- possible influence of Plasma
Active on KDE _desktop_. If that's close to reality, we could target the future
of KDE and make reasonable improvements aimed more at usability improvements
than on compliance. I believe these improvements would pay off regardless of
how KDE 5 will 'look' like.
