Ok, cool stuff.

BTW, since I'm at it, you might want to take a look at KFilePlacesModel and 
KFilePlacesView. I still need to get around making them more robust (in 
particular on the model side), but at least the model could be used in 
the "computer" view. The benefit of doing this would be that this way it'd be 
in sync with the filemanager and the filedialog, this kind of consistency is 
probably nice for the user (one and only one places system to use).

Regards.
