I used kFilePlacesModel as suggested by Christoph Feck, but it doesn't list devices (fixed/removable); and not yet got around fixing that. Home and Root are already listed by KonqCopyToMainMenu::slotAboutToShow() and using KFilePlacesModel lists them again - can be fixed easily.

This should also help in scenario where plugged in removable media is not automatically mounted (which is the default setup at least in Fedora). I couldn't find a way to easily extend that functionality, though.
