[Kde-pim] URL Attachments in KOrganizer 4.x completely broken

[Reinhold Kainhofer]

Hi!
So far (KDE <=3.x), attachments in KOrganizer were mainly useful to attach a 
link to a web page to an event (e.g. the course description, the conference 
schedule and homepage, the talk's abstract and the speaker's homepage, the 
map for your meeting, the club's homepage, the concert / movie information, 
the bugzilla URL for the taks in the to-do list, the jabber URL for the 
workgroup conference etc. - all these are real examples from my real-life 
calendar with >100 ATTACH lines in the calendar!).

Now in 4.x binary attachments have been implemented and in that course the 
ability to add http:// (or general URL attachments) has been inadvertantly 
crippled / removed. Currently, you can neither enter a URL (e.g. adding 
http://www.jung-wien.at/ as attachment will attach the path /), nor will a 
proper link appear in the event viewer in korganizer (using a current SVN 
checkout).

Can the one responsible for this serious breaking of existing functionality 
please be so kind and restore the ability to work properly with URLs?

Cheers,
Reinhold
