that is entirely possible as from KDE 2 to KDE 3, there have been a lot
of changes. I doubt that it would make a difference between Kedit or
Kwrite. Given the rapid rate of development in KDE and Gnome, these
things are moving targets.

Obviously you are forcing us to look inside a particular box by using
html and Konqueror and many of us would likely use other methods to
accomplish the same things. I would use shell scripts which would allow
for each user to have his own list of documents/launchers and be easier
to maintain and not have to deal with security implementations of things
like browsers and web servers.
