cpp includes in http ioslave

When one looks at kioslave/http/http.cpp it finds things like this:
//string parsing helpers and HeaderTokenizer implementation
#include "parsinghelpers.cpp"
//authentication handlers
#include "httpauthentication.cpp"
Which happens because e.g. parsinghelpers.cpp only consist of static
functions. httpauthentication.cpp on the other hand consists of normal class
implementations. I don't really see a point in keeping at least this file
included as it's currently is. I wanted to write some testcases for this and
found out it's hard to use at all as several headers are missing because it
relies on http.cpp including them. In httpauthentication.h you can also find
things like this:
#ifndef HTTP_H_ // if we're included from http.cpp all necessary headers are
already included
#include <QtCore/QByteArray>
#include <QtCore/QString>
#include <QtCore/QList>
#include <kio/authinfo.h>
#endif
Would anyone object if I clean this up so the cpp files are all compiled on
their own and the parsinghelper stuff is put into a namespace (to avoid
pollution the global one) so these files can be just added in the
CMakeLists.txt to some project (like the testcases)?
I also would like to move the kioslave/tests/ directory to
kioslave/http/tests. Currently all tests in there are http tests anyway. The
rationale behind this is that the authentication test would need to duplicate
all that gss include/link stuff from the http/CMakeLists.txt. I don't want to
duplicate this as it would also needed to kept in sync if anyone goes and
touches this. So putting the tests into the http directory would allow the
tests to simply use the same settings that kio_http uses.
