            Bug ID: 425396
           Summary: New folder named ":foo" always created in home dir
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 19.12.3
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: nahoj at crans.org
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

When I try to create a new folder in any folder, if I give it a name starting
with ':' (a colon), the folder is created under my home dir (/home/mylogin)
instead of the current dir.

Observed in Dolphin 19.04.3 (up-to-date Kubuntu 19.10) and 19.12.3 (Kubuntu
20.04). Same behavior in Konqueror.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In Dolphin, open /tmp or any folder other than /home/mylogin
2. In the main area, right click > Create new > Folder
3. Type in ":Abc", Enter

OBSERVED RESULT

There is no :Abc folder in the current folder but there is an :Abc folder in
/home/mylogin

EXPECTED RESULT

There is a :Abc folder in the current folder and no :Abc folder in
/home/mylogin
