yes, both things are needed (help welcome :p) > We don't want to expose something by default that doesn't allow to do too > much, it may cause users to remove SLC because "it does nothing" and cause > a horrible chain effect. this is in part true, but at the moment there is the other face of the medal that outweights it: if we are waiting that "magically" it gets ready before putting it in front of people, simply won't happen, ever. I agree that it should have a minimum level of functionality a bit more than the current one (not that much, btw), but also anything that delays having it ready, is just self hurting. a good balance can be: * identify the most urgent work items to make it have a minimum functionality (everything that can be added in a second release, should be postponed, wanting it perfect now just makes it never done) * make it a dependency, installed by default, and enabled by default on master * if for the limit set for 4.10 won't be enough, it will be removed from the default setup, but still shipped and installed * if will actually end up on by default for 4.10 -> party, otherwise will be reenabled immediately after master reopens how does it sounds for feasible? ;) > Also, in order to exploit the connect, what about adding a folderview with > "Show files from cuerrent activity" by default? +1 on this ;) > Or, how hard would it be to adapt Active container ? not much for making it work... but it doesn't completely conceptually work in a desktop use case tough > Generally people don't understand what "Link to activity" does in dolphin > because once they link a file, nothing happens. Then you explain to them > how the folderview works and they love it :p a folderview on the current activity by default can be a good idea, also dolphin needs to have a link for the current activity in its sidebar by default i think one thing that would make it optimal in both folderview and dolphin is that when somebody drops a file in it, it links the dropped urls to the activity: at the moment it just answers with a laconic malformed url, that is not exactly a wonderful user experience.
