***
Right now, to scan location you don't have access to you need to install
`kio-admin` and then launch filelight with `admin:///<location>` argument,
which is totally not obvious.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install filelight.
2. Try to scan location that you can't access.
3. You can't.

OBSERVED RESULT
No easy way to do this.

EXPECTED RESULT
Have a button perhaps to scan those type of locations (and perhaps ask to
install kio-admin if it isn't installed already, or just add it as dep to
filelight package).
