So, in other words without the Okular and Dolphin plugins Konqueror 
won't do either of those things.

Getting creative is one thing, but to claim that Konqueror is a 
file/folder manager and can open PDF's natively is wrong. It can do 
neither of these things without a plugin. Konqueror is a web browser, 
period. It's the plugins that give it other abilities. Dolphin _is_ the 
file/folder manager whether inside Konqueror or stand alone. Okular _is_ 
the PDF viewer either within Konqueror or stand alone. To say that you 
will switch distros before using Dolphin is an oxymoron. Your already 
using Dolphin all the time.

With the proper plug ins I can do any of those things in Firefox, for 
instance, but no one claims that Firefox is a file/folder manager or PDF 
viewer. Firefox is a web browser that can use plug ins, just like 
Konqueror, to gain more functionality.
