[Kde-kiosk] KMailcvt/KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory confused by
URL Restrictions

As I seem to be playiong with URL Restrictions today :-(
If one has:
[KDE URL Restrictions][$i]
rule_1=list,,,,file,,,false
rule_2=list,,,,file,,$HOME,true
it seems to confuse KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory.
With this URL Restriction in place, if I try to use kmailcvt "Import
Plain Text EMails" option, kmailcvt pops up a "Select Folder" dialogue
with a "Access denied to file:/" error.
I can't then select a directory for kmailcvt to work on :-(
The code for the kmailcvt bit is in:
../kdepim-3.3.2/kmailcvt/filter_plain.cxx
and looks like:
QString mailDir = KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory(QDir::homeDirPath(),info->parent());
if (mailDir.isEmpty()) { // No directory selected
info->alert(i18n("No directory selected."));
return;
}
If I remove the URL restrictions then KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory
displays the entire filesystem and I can select a directory.
Again: Waldo: is this an application (kmailcvt) problem or a KDE kiosk
problem? Who needs to know?
