           Summary: No way to move or copy files saved in a Plasma widget
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandriva RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: fhimpe pandora be


Version:           4.0.82 (using KDE 4.0.80)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

Drag and drop an avatar image from Kopete's chat window to the desktop. A Plasma widget representing the file will be created (if I understand it well, the Plasma widget contains a base64 encoding of the image file?). It's impossible to move or this file later on to an accessible directory: I can't drop it in the Folder View widget, I can't drop it in a Dolphin file manager, and there is no item in the right click menu which permits me to save or copy the file somewhere. So basically I cannot access this "file" in any way except via Plasma.
