Update on this (and still talking to my own): I rewrote that code, so there 
isn't a stat call for every file. Logically, the "project upload" dialog does 
not hang anymore, but Quanta still hangs after the scan is completed, due to 
another NetAccess call, in a completely different place, which saves the 
project, KIO::NetAccess::upload. The case is similar, the event loop is not 
exited.
 I managed to find a workaround for this (preventing to call that function 
while the "project upload" dialog is visible), but undoubtly there is a 
deeper error in KIO. A timeout handler in NetAccess would be a solution, but 
it's still a workaround. Any idea what can be done to fix it properly?
