Yeah, both are the same and this is known, the infrastructure is largely 
there but its still got loads of problems.
We are aware of those and its on the list of things to fix before we can 
release.

Hmm, this surprises me; we had a 'krush' day where kde people went and tried 
to get things to crash or otherwise misbehave. We had some people that 
after an hour of trying said they didn't manage to crash it.
So, yeah, it could very well be a problem in kubuntu.

I would really appreciate it if you could post backtraces of any crash you 
find.

Not sure how you managed to get rid of all your dockers :)
Notice that in the settings->dockers menu you can enable/disable any docker.

If you don't like it, maybe you can click the checkbox under the template 
you choose to always use that template. Then you never have to see it 
again :)
