    Yes, but changing permissions is only one case for ending up here. The most common case is that KDirWatch (in Stat mode) notifies us that a directory has changed because files have been created in it, or deleted, etc. In that case we do want to make the directory as dirty, not its parent.
    I guess that means we need to do both, mark the parent and the directory itself, as dirty. Sucks for performance, though.
    The real issue is that KDirWatch's dirty() signal is pretty unspecific.
    
    Ah, I know. This is called by KDirWatch so it's local only, no networ transparency.
    So we should just clear the permissions/owner in the KFileItem for the directory, they'll be re-determined on demand by KFileItem.

    Well, that's equivalent to looping over url.directory() instead of url.path(), then. Which then means both cases (directory and file) can be merged.

This patch addresses that bug.
