As far as I know the entries are processed top-down and not preferring more 
specific entries. In your example this means that rule_1=list,,,,file,,,false 
covers each and every request and thus blocks everything.

Does

[KDE URL Restrictions][$i]
rule_count=5
rule_1=list,,,,file,,$HOME,true
rule_2=open,,,,file,,$HOME/mydownloads,true
rule_3=list,,,,file,,,false
rule_4=open,,,,file,,,false
rule_5=list,,,,file,,$TMP,false

work?
