This doesn’t answer your question (though I think the answer is yes) but I
use shells so often (and konsole specifically) that I have a workspace
dedicated to the task. If you are not familiar with workspaces they
basically let you have multiple desktops though with just one monitor (or
per set of monitors). In my case I dedicate one to my browser and e-mail
application, one to konsole (with multiple tabs in it), one to Pidgin and
other communication clients, and one to Thunderbird for forums (this one).
You can have as many as you’d like and switching between them is just a
matter of pressing Ctrl+Alt+arrow (where ‘arrow’ is the left or right
arrow on your keyboard). Closing/opening konsole is then never needed and
tab manipulation in konsole is quick and powerful once you get used to it.
Anyway, it’s an idea. Another one is to just press Alt+F2 and then type
in konsole, gnome-terminal, xterm or whatever you want to load that is in
the PATH.
Good luck.
