Public bug reported:

I use Kile. I use Konsole as my primary terminal application. I have set
Konsole to use byobu as my primary shell. That is, in Konsole, right-
click, Edit Current Profile, General tab, General section, "command" is
set to /usr/bin/byobu.

I never use the Konsole embedded inside of Kile. I don't want it. As far
as I'm concerned, it need not exist, and if it has to exist, this should
be something internal to Kile and should not bother me, the end user.

However, if I open a new file in Kile, or switch tabs in Kile, it sends
out commands to Konsole (usually cding to some folder), and this
interferes in my terminal usage. This can have unpredictable
consequences - for example if I'm playing music with mplayer, the "cd
blah blah" text sent to it may cause it to stop and exit, or do all
sorts of strange things. This is probably because Kile launches Konsole
which causes it to attach to the same byobu session.

I use my terminal and LaTeX editor as two entirely independent apps, and
I expect them not to interfere with each other.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with a fresh Kubuntu install. Ensure that Kile, Konsole, and byobu are 
installed.
2. In your only Konsole profile, ensure that the "command" is set to byobu.
3. Open Konsole, if not open already. You should be in byobu. Navigate to some 
folder X.
4. Open Kile, and open a LaTeX file in some folder Y, different from X. Open 
other files and switch tabs and compile if needed.
5. Go back and look at Konsole.

Actual Results:
Your current path in the shell has changed in Konsole, thanks to some "cd" 
commands you never issued.

Expected Results:
Konsole should work. Kile should work. They should not interfere with each 
other.
