KDE 4.3 is a tad bit too old for my taste, and lacks certain features.
For example, I just found out that there is no automount option when
plugging in a USB disk. That feature appeared in KDE 4.4, and here I
have to use an ugly custom cron job to check every minute whether
there is a USB hard drive to be mounted or not.

There are probably other small things missing as well. I would welcome
a KDE update on CentOS 6. ;-)

Best, :-)
