What exactly do you suggest we do about this ? The freeze happens because a
code path that uses QProcess is encountered when the KFileDialog is invoked.
The last I checked, QProcess is part of Qt. Anyhow, I agree with your earlier
stance about relying on signals within a library, but it is not KDE that is
doing this! It is Qt's QProcess and short of not using that class, for which we
have no substitute, there is nothing we can do about this.
