            Bug ID: 429067
           Summary: Dolphin does not return the path of the locally
                    mounted network drive through kio-fuse
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.08.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

SUMMARY
I was having a hard time figuring out if kio-fuse was working because
applications don't seem to be able to access the locally mounted folder. After
manually going to the directory /run/user/1000/kio-fuse*/server_name, I was
able to confirm that dolphin was in fact using kio-fuse to mount the sftp
drive. However, when using the add network folder button in dolphin under the
remote section. None of the files accessed from that location return the path
of the locally mounted folder. An example of the problem is when I drag and
drop a file from dolphin while in a remote location to a separate terminal
instance. Since dolphin seems to pass the sftp://url instead of the
/run/user/1000/etc url.  Command line utilities are unable to make use of files
on remote drives. Pressing the F4 button correctly shows the full kio-fuse
mounted path url. I can then copy this and manually navigate to that directory
and do what I need to do there. After confirming that operations work with that
url. I decided to quickly install nautilus to see if it suffered from the same
problem. If you drag and drop a folder from nautilus into konsole the full
locally gvfs-fuse mounted path url is given to konsole instead of the sftp://
location shown in the path bar. This way terminal commands can make use of
them. It seems that gui apps such as all the kde apps (of course), gimp,
mypaint, and libreoffice seem to receive the usable kio-fuse mounted path. I
just can't seem to get that path into a terminal.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have kio-fuse installed

2. Mount a remote drive through the add remote ssh (sftp protocol) drive using
the add network folder shorcut in dolphin. It should be located under the
remote section in the Network folder. 

3. Drag and drop or copy the location of any folder/file in the remote drive to
a terminal. Or try to open a file with a program that does not have native sftp
support. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing will happen or the program will fail because the file url is
incomprehensible to the external program. An example would be running mediainfo
on a video file off of said network drive. If the url is the sftp://etc one
that dolphin returns. Mediainfo will just sit there. However if it is the
/run/user/1000/etc url mediainfo will work as expected.

EXPECTED RESULT
I think dolphin should return the path url of the kio-fuse local mount instead.
The way that nautilus seems to do.
