It is a pity indeed. I just tried it myself on KDE4 and it seems like it
wants to work but it doesn't quite.

I wouldn't want this to prolongue, this project couldn't go through
kdereview at the moment successfully, so there's little reason for it to
stay in.

Instead of removing, we can put it differently and move it to a little farm
where kioslaves go die, but if somebody doesn't commit to it, it has to go.

Also there's many other kioslaves in need for love: ** Adopt your kioslave
**
