Well actually those things you're talking about distract me
too
but I can't really fix them without hacking qt dock widgets
(and the bottom pane placement is simply impossible even to
hack).

What I want to say here is that I simply can not fix that
problems.
The goal of "simple ideal" was not only to have
the simpler UI but
to have simpler code. This means we rely on dock widget
implementation
in Qt and some problems you have are problems with dock
widgets
(#1 is simpleideal bug though). And I don't want to add more
hacks
now, let's just wait for KDevelop4 where things should be a
bit better.

That's fine, just as long as these things aren't forgotten.


I can live with which dock area gets precedence; this is
mostly a matter 
of "what I'm used to". Who knows, maybe I'll
decide I like it?  But 
the other two visual issues are very distracting (haven't
tested the 
patch yet, sorry... will try to get to it soon). Is there
hope for the 
resize handle with the broken colors?

Btw, because I'm thinking of it, thank you for *looking* at
this, and 
for a very pleasant conversation that actually (or at least
seems to! 
)
expresses concern for my concerns.

When on POSIX, do as POSIX mandates.
