after testing, i can tell you that you are, thankfully, quite wrong.

in KStandardDirs::exists there is this code:

    if (access(QFile::encodeName(fullPath), R_OK) == 0 && KDE_stat( 
QFile::encodeName(fullPath), &buff ) == 0)
        if (fullPath.at(fullPath.length() - 1) != '/') {
            if (S_ISREG( buff.st_mode ))
                return true;
        } else
            if (S_ISDIR( buff.st_mode ))
                return true;

it's even in the API docu in one place =)

however, looking at this code in libplasma was not wasted. i realized that it 
will only work for plasma the way it is written and not for other 
applications (and vice versa, depending on where the plasmoid is stored).

the fix for this should be pretty easy, though; i just have to find a nice 
place to register the resource. maybe in Corona.... hm.
