Well lxr claims it's not only used by KUrlRequester. It doesn't have many uses 
though... So I agree with your proposal to make it an event filter *if* said 
event filter is done in a way that it can be used with KUrlRequester, 
QComboBox and QLineEdit (means it'd need its own class). It also would have to 
be made a public class in either KGuiAddons or KWidgetsAddons.

Regards.
