Spaces, bloody spaces.

Much to my dismay I figured out a few minutes ago that amarok wasn't  
able to play back audio on os x using the phonon-qt7 because of spaces  
in file paths. I haven't checked for the urls that didn't work yet but  
perhaps it's the same issue.

Since this works with the demo qt media player, but not amarok, I am  
assuming that kio_and_friends don't eascape their urls properly.
Looking at the output in Console I can see that urls with spaces have  
the spaces converted to %20. Perhaps this is incorrect on OS X. I  
don't know. If you've got any ideas on how I should proceed with  
debugging this I'd appreciate it. Also I probably won't be able to get  
back to you about this till next week as I'm moving.
Internet and all that good stuff i still up in the air.
