Uh, no, please don't add even more filtering methods to KDirLister! This is 
supposed to get removed altogether, utilizing K(Simple)FileFilter. At least, 
please mark them internal for now, as long as KFileFilter isn't used.

That way, an application can easily perform the filtering itself, without us 
having to extend KDirLister all the time for every new filter.
