You can create a bug/wish for the kile product in bugs.kde.org about that, i'm
sure the kile devels are happy to help.

Actually one of my ideas yesterday was to try to detect if the file had been
genereated using tikz and offer the user to run dvipdf ourselves, but couln't
find a way to distinguish such a file

http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/5826/tikz-with-positioning-does-not-work-with-dvi

This is basically not a bug, unless someone wants to include gs parsing on our
dvi backend

I've been having a look at the file and what happens is

draw(G1)
somePSCommands
draw(G2)

it happens that those ps commands move where G2 would end up but since we don't
do PS parsing G1 and G2 end of top of eachother

Comments?

Now I understand it's not a bug, and can also guess why dvips solves the
problem.

Including or not ps parsing in dvi frontend is a developers decision. And I'm
not a developer. So I'll argue from user point of view.

Philosophically, a dvi parser should not parse ps.

In the other side, there is an integration issue with kile.
tikz is becoming an usual package in latex. Not so long ago, tikz came with a
warning telling it should be compiled with pdflatex (I read that in todonotes
documentation), and that was a pain in systems which didn't support backward
search of pdf. I guess that is why someone implemented that mixture of ps and
dvi.
One can blame tikz developers, one can go with mixing dvi and ps, or, as kile +
okular does manage backward search of pdf, one can try to find a compromise
solution.

Actually I'm doing that by hand: depending on which machine I'm using, I use
kile|pdflatex|okular, or texnikcenter|latex|yap. I wander if it is a good idea
or not making kile to detect that tikz issue and warn the user or even change
it automatically.

The dvi file i attached is correctly displayed by yap, and also after dvips and
ps2pdf the result is a correct pdf file.

here is a snapshot of yap:

I tested this compiling both with texlive and with miktex.
