So it looks like I have to choose between "annoying" and "more 
annoying".
I'm still sticking with Konq though because mime associations in Firefox 
and the GNOME file dialog are "even more annoying".

Maybe I should just try changing my video driver back to fglrx (although 
I don't like that option either, because when new X11 comes along or 
new kernel comes along, I have to put them on hold for a couple of 
weeks until new fglrx comes along... grrr)
