We have some problems here, KDE Dolphin is using SUDO User so viewing 
root files and as user it's more difficult for making systemsettings5 
changes for root look and feel you need gksu to get oxygen icons in 
synaptic. With Konqueror you can still use SU and view root but not with 
Dolphin.  As for browsing the web with a KDE app I've never done that 
and never will. Konq is a simple file manager that I've used for 
something like 20 years or more, getting the filter bar was a nice add-on.
