Can't Konqueror and kfile simply automatically return the mostLocalURL for 
any URL that has it, for every application? The result would be that any 
application would receive the file name, not a URL that should point to 
it.

The drawback is that, if a user does Save As or Open in an application, he 
won't be in home:/$USER/Documents, but $HOME/Documents, which defeats the 
point.
