            Bug ID: 320320
           Summary: Konqueror needs some polishing when used along with
                    SFTP kioslave
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kde-windows
           Version: 4.10
          Platform: MS Windows
               URL: http://edony.tuxfamily.org/~xav/img/kde-windows-konque

                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR

This bug report is part of my experiments with KDE Development Platform 4.10.2
(latest stable from the GUI installer) using a 4 vCPUs VirtualBox VM running MS
Windows XP Pro version 2002 SP3.
These experiments mainly aim at trying Kate, Konqueror and the SFTP KIO/slave
under Windows so that working with Unix/Linux machines from a Windows
workstation stops being so painful.

Launching Konqueror, entering sftp://user@hostname immediately changes it to
sftp://user@hostname/path/to/home/directory and lists the files as expected;
however:
  * symlinks owner and groups are shown as numeric values instead of user and
group names
  * some names are suffixed with garbage characters:
http://edony.tuxfamily.org/~xav/img/kde-windows-konqueror-sftp-listing.png
  * the tested directory was containing a "Téléchargements" directory, i.e. a
directory which filename contains non-ASCII, ISO-8859-15 characters; it was
displayed correctly but upon trying to enter it, Konqueror stated that "The
file or folder sftp://user@hostname/path/to/home/directory/Téléchargements"
does not exist.
  * Also, it seems that handling a file opening operation through the standard
Windows application selection dialog keeps only the path part of the URL: right
click on "filename" > Open with > choose kate => "The file
/path/to/home/directory/filename could not be loaded, as it was not possible to
read from it. Check if you have access to this file." -- not sure it can even
be fixed...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Konqueror
2. Type sftp://your_username@some_remote_unix_machine in the address bar
3. Check the displayed listing
