I notice it but like the feature and will probably setup a kwin special window config for it to do that after the feature is removed (assuming it is). However, I have dual 1600x1200 21" monitors, so if I need to, I just move it out of the way. Not all folks could do that. I do expect it's seriously annoying for some, tho, and have actually been expecting the "feature" to disappear, despite the fact that it works well here. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
