ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Midnight Commander is a valuable command line tool but if it exits into it's
starting directory it becomes just another file manager. This issue was a major
blocker for me until a workaround was found.

This behavior doesn't happen in any other GUI than KDE, tested on icewm and
xfce.
