I'm sorry to use your gmail account but don't think my opinion needs to be in bug report..
I started using kubuntu because I really liked the look (plasma desktop) and feel of it. Also, I am trying to get my children and their children to experience linux using this setup. (five PCs and four different households) Plasma is beautiful but I swapped my laptop to xfce desktop and don't have the problems that plasma does.
I'm not a expert but it seems that a lot of people use kubuntu the same way as I do.. Running graphical programs as root and all. Seems that the problem shouldn't be shifted to the user but repaired.. I agree with one of the comments in the bug report that if the graphical programs offered a route to root in a menu to edit files and save them that would probably be a decent workaround. But then all of these programs would have to be changed because of this bug?? I vote to fix the problem with this very specific file permission argument. Is it kde or plasma?
I chowned user:user the file in question and I haven't had this happen again..If this is the fix I will gladly use plasma again. I am glad that you people are working on the problem.
Thanks Allen S
