This is pretty closely related to something I've been working on - see
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62425 . Using the framework I
propose in the latest attached patch, it'd just be a matter of skipping
cleanPath altogether for non-URL URIs, or defining a processing mode for
data URLs to mark them as exempt from cleanPath.

It's time that patch was committed anyway. I asked for comments on
kde-core-devel two weeks ago and got none, so I'll try again here. Does
anyone mind my committing it?
