[frameworks-kio] [Bug 413834] Add "encoding hack to support broken file names" for trash://

[Harald Sitter]

--- Comment #3 from Harald Sitter <sitter at kde.org> ---
What if they don't want to? The way I see it we don't get around solving the
issue that trash can't delete some files one way or the other. We can't just
rename files for the user without asking, the file may be encoded this way for
a reason and changing it might break other consumers, and the user may for the
same reason choose to not follow our advise. So, I don't see a way around
adding encoding support.

Being ignorant of how trash works I can't help but wonder why trash
reimplements logic that exists in file:// though. If I was to implement a trash
slave from scratch I'd most definitely have it call out to file behind the
scenes. It's merely a more purpose-driven file slave, is it not?
