Thanks for the investigation and patch.
kio/kio/copyjob.cpp (line 579)

We don't want to abort the copy just because one unreadable folder was found. We want to tell the user (hence the warning line below) and keep going.
This emulates what `cp -a ~/src ~/dst` does.
OK, you're not exactly aborting, but you're still setting an error - even though everything else got copied. I don't see why this is necessary. Is it just to get an error box, or does it fix behaviour?
kio/kio/copyjob.cpp (line 582)

This is what is supposed to show you a message box about the fact that a subdirectory was skipped.
If it doesn't work, I would suggest debugging that (maybe a problem with the default ui delegate).
kio/kio/job.cpp (line 2659)

this makes sense indeed.
kio/kio/job.cpp (line 2669)
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/125613/#comment59828>
isn't this the error message you're getting?
I'm confused then (you're adding code that isn't getting called?)
kio/kio/job.cpp (line 2671)
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/125613/#comment59833>
Same question here. As the comment says, "the result is still OK", which is why I didn't set an error code here. Please explain why this is needed.
kio/kio/job.cpp (line 2683)
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/125613/#comment59832>
I see. SimpleJob::slotFinished() will emit result again, if it happens after this.
This check is unusual, but then again, most other composite jobs do not also run a slave themselves.
Can you add a comment? Like
// if the main directory listing is still running, it will emit result in SimpleJob::slotFinished()
kio/tests/jobtest.cpp (line 377)
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/125613/#comment59825>
Just call QDir().remove always, you don't check its return value anyway ;)
kio/tests/jobtest.cpp (line 399)
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/125613/#comment59826>
Typo: premissions -> permissions
kio/tests/jobtest.cpp (line 411)

please remove trailing space everywhere
