Oh holy shit... yes, you're right, it's of course because of keeping a
reference in KDirWatch :-( The only solution I can think of is... remove that
preloading feature!
Well ok, seriously. I could make KDirLister not put things like floppy and
cdrom (wich is flawed anyways, who wants to watch a cdrom? :) in KDirWatch
once that dir is in itemsCached. I think it's worth the speed we loose,
right? ;) But, how to detect if an url is a floppy, cdrom, Zip or not? And
furthermore, I occasionally mount harddisks temporarily. I can't think of a
solution here... besides removing the "speedy caching" feature altogether :/
