But this is exactly what Konqueror DOES show. A tree at left and a

In View choose View Mode then Text View.

In Window, you want to choose Split View Left/Right and Show Sidebar.
And probably in Load Vie Profile, you want to choose File Management.

And Save View Profile, if you want that stuff to be per directory.
