The panel with entries moving

So it is pretty annoying to be that the entries in the Places sidepanel in
Dolphin move too easily, even when what I want is them to be locked in place
(because most of the time I just want to click and select them, not move them).
Attached is the panel I'm referring to.

So an option in the panel header and in every entry's right-click context menu
to lock/unlock them would be nice.

The behavior IMHO should be:
(when locked):
- left-click selects the element;
- keeping it clicked, hovering to another element selects that element (but
doesn't trigger the click action);

(when unlocked):
- the current behavior


My workaround/proof of concept of what I mean with the behavior when locked is
adding:
    setDragEnabled(false);
to Dolphin's 
src/panels/places/placespanel.cpp
at the very beginning of the constructor.

This would give an idea of the behavior with "locked" enabled.

As far as I can see, the relevant class should be KFilePlacesView (which is
PlacesPanel's parent), but may be wrong.
