Sorry for interrupting, but I'm not sure if the crashes plugin is redundant in
light of the new session management. If anything, I think it's a more advanced
way of recovering from crashes. Two things that it has over the new session
management feature (afaik) is that:

1. It saves a list of all previous crashes;
2. It saves the list for all opened konqueror sessions that crash. If you have
two konqueror windows open and both of them crash, you'll have both sessions
in the list of crashes, and you can pick which ones to restore.

I don't know the new session management will have those 2 features, but imho
those are enough to spare it from being removed.

Don't worry you don't interrupt =)

Well if two sessions crash, the new session manager will let you recover both.
I wrote a patch for the session management to automatically save the detected
crashes as sessions which can be recovered in File Sessions but it seems
I didn't commit it yet. I will see when I can commit it (4.2?) and I will
raise this topic again then ;-)
