Thanks for the patch! I agree that not showing the "Move/Copy/Link" menu when dropping items on a read-only entry in the Places Panel makes sense (because selecting any action in the menu triggers an error message in a message box, which must be clicked away).

However, I think that we should not use the KMessageWidget for this kind of non-critical error messages. In the past years, we got quite a bit of feedback from users who considered the message widget annoying (e.g., when showing the "Folder cannot be dropped on itself" message). It's different for critical messages (like "Cannot enter directory xyz") though.
