Not currently. We would have to launch three stat()s (we look for index.html, index.htm and index.HTML)
which might take a long time over a slow FTP site. So currently KonqMainWindow::findIndexFile only
does it for local files. However this is something that could be implemented (hmm, with NetAccess,
but we'd have to disable the GUI meanwhile to avoid reentrancy), for protocol with :class=Local,
so that it's done for "fast" protocols like kio_tar etc. but not over FTP.

When stat("/") says it's a directory.
