I would not try to experiment what KIO does when it sees an %f for a 
telnet:// URL. In theory, it should *download* the URL and pass the 
filename to the service.

Which doesn't make sense.

No, the proper solution is to fix ktelnetservice. As a workaround, you can 
write your own ktelnetservice replacement, but you need to use %u.
