The same happens if the plasma:/ url is used in web pages or emails ("Son, here you can connect to my Dinner-is-ready plasmoid, Yours, Mum"), or isn't this supposed to be done?
> With KIO there is the need of a .protocol file which describes what the plasma:/ protocol is about (see patch for prototype). AFAIK for such protocols not starting a kioslave, but a helper program ("helper=true"), that one needs to be defined here in the "exec=" line. So what would the helper program be for plasma:/ urls? For Drag'nDrops this entry is ignored, BTW, and just the url passed.
