The feature I miss most of all is being able to select multiple files at
once (with the mouse) and perform batch operations on them, such as
'batch rename' with 'krename'. And, in the case of image files, to
create a web gallery, compress, resize them in one, fell swoop. In
Dolphin I have to select multiple files by pressing <Ctrl> + click for
each file and I can't perform batch operations on them, like with
'konq-kim'.
