I simply notified the distro of the issue and moved on.  I don't have  
the itch/time to create a workaround for a bug that will (in theory)  
be shortly fixed.  Either way I am not really following your idea,  
loading up a kdialog through QProcess shouldn't inject kio into the  
main process I would think.
