How to disable changing of konqueror icon in taskbar ?



Does anyone have an idea how to disable the changing of konqueror icon
in the taskbar ?


Since konqueror (both browser and filemanager) always changes taskbar
icon for different locations it is hard to find it in the taskbar or
when Alt-tabing through windows.

Example: after I open pdf file from Konqueror, I have two
indistiguishable PDF icons in the taskbar (one for Acroread, another for
Konqueror).
The same applies to websites. IMO there is no reason to change taskbar
icons for different sites to distinguish between them - one can open all
sites in one Konqueror windows with multiple tabs. Tabs can than be
distinguished by site icons (ironically, tab site icons can be turned
off).

I consider this as a blow to KDE usability, especially annoying when
more windows are open and quick intuitive orientation is desired.

It would be reasonable to make this icon changing and option, and IMO it
should by default be turned off.

My best regards

ZACK
