Ship it!


Code looks good!

I can't test your patch because of the lack of time, but I'm sure it works as expected ;)

This fixes some very subtle issues (to reproduce, e.g., expand a/ and a/a/, collapse and re-expand a/, note that a/a/ is not expanded, go to another folder and then go back, and see that a/a/ is now expanded, i.e., that the view state is actually not restored correctly).

However, I still think that this approach is probably cleaner than all alternatives because it requires changes only in one function. If we stored this information in a new member in KFileItemModel (like a QHash<KUrl, QSet<KUrl> >, where the key is the previously expanded folder, and the value the set of expanded children), we would have to update this member whenever the parent folder is removed from the model (because it is deleted, its own parent gets collapsed, the model is cleared, etc.), so we would need new code in many different places, and remember to update it whenever there is a change in the affec
 ted functions.
