First let me correct your English.  “Resolved” is not the right word to
be using.  This problem has NOT been resolved.  OK it is also marked
“WONTFIX” this is fine since your arrogance has spoken and you feel you
have the right to restrict to use of applications that someone wants to
use as they see fit.  What happened to the term “Open System”??

I am totally appalled of the fact that you cut out threads in the bug
report posted by me and others saying this is a bad idea and doesn’t
secure a thing.  This is an open forum you know the “free exchange of
ideas”.  This was only done in order for you the developers to not look
bad and not look stupid.  Still sweeping things under the rug doesn’t
make things right.  It just shows your integrity as a Human Being.

There are work arounds around your broken applications Leafpad works
just fine.  Sure it doesn’t have the features and functions Kate does.
It isn’t as pretty but… IT WORKS!  I just loaded PcmanFM file manager
and it works great it even has some nice functions that Dolphin doesn’t
have, and IT WORKS!  This will keep me making a living until I can move
my work machine over to LXDE.

The sad thing is after over 20 years of using KDE and loving it I am now
in the process of moving over to LXDE.  After doing some research the
LXDE group seem to have a better understanding of the term “Open
Systems”.  No it isn’t as nice and isn’t as polished but everything
works.

As a Pen Tester normally on a Linux machine when I try to hijack a root
process I go for more of a system process and not Kate or Dolphin
processes running as root.  A system process is less likely to be killed
while compromising the machine where Kate running as root can be killed
at any time by the user when they complete whatever task they are doing
with Kate.  Rest assured from this day forward when I’m in a Linux box
looking for a running root process to hijack I will go for all those
root processes that start with a “K” just to prove you have secured
NOTHING by your actions.  Just made your product unusable.

BTW Did you all work for Microsoft in the past?
