I'm using hasUrls() instead because KUrlMimeData returns a list of urls, which is more expensive than what Qt does (a string comparison). 

Also, if our way of checking URLs is better than the way Qt uses, we should contribute it to Qt instead of avoid using their methods (we are going to rely a lot more on Qt since KF5, so we have to trust what Qt does).

Since KUrlRequester is part of KIO, it can not use Kde4Support and should be ported to use QLineEdit and QComboBox. As I said on my email to the frameworks list, it was easier to implement this directly in KUrlRequester than patching Qt, even though it was originally planned as a Qt task. It was my intention to also remove that property from KLineEdit and KComboBox, but finally I didn't include it in the patch (see Ervin's comment in the mailing list).
