There is always a chance.  I have long wanted to learn to program for Qt/KDE 
and this might be a good time to do it.  The question is only: will people 
use it?  I have the feeling that most of the other developers are using GNOME 
more than KDE, and to put a lot of work into it and then nobody uses it 
doesn't feel very rewarding.

I would like to get some input from you developers:  What kind of graphical 
debug tool do you want and what environment are you using?  What about a 
simple toolkit like FLTK?

Ok. Shouldn't be to difficult to fix. I wonder how much this bug really 
matters.
