Ah, I know the generic pattern. :-) I thought you meant something QT/KDE specific. I like the code you proposed. Although, it is maybe a bit too generic here: we would lose the possibility to distinguish between different urls for filelight (current directory, current volume and all), would'nt we?

Take also a look here: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/122374/diff/12/ (git menu). There is also a special case ("View history") which makes the factory approach not quite straightforward to implement.

However, in context of alternative applications suggestions (which I plan to do next with KMoreTools), the factory would fit very good.
