Of COURSE it's a bug!  We like Konqueror as the wonderful swiss-army knife
it's always been.  If it becomes impossible to browse _files_ with it in
future, I may very well just give up on KDE.  

I'm well aware that there are people who believe that Web browsers shouldn't
manage files.  They have Nautilus and Firefox, and I'll be damned
disappointed if KDE's going the same way.

As for "it uses parts of Dolphin to manage files", that sucks.  It's always
been Konqueror's strength that it can swallow applications whole, and I see
no reason Dolphin should be crippled inside Konqueror.
