Review request for kdelibs and David Faure.


Changes
-------

Updated the testing section.


Description
-------

The attached patch fixes a regression caused by a commit to fix bug# 88575. 
Namely, it fixed a problem where filenames with whitespaces in them were not 
handled correctly by kio_ftp. That is because the filenames were automatically 
trimmed when read from the directory. However, the fix then re-introduced the 
original bug and the reason why names were automatically trimmed in the first 
place. Some ftp servers add bogus whitespace between the date and filename in 
their listings. Hence, we need need to fix both of these opposing issues 
without breaking the other. This patch tries to do just that by actually 
validating each name entry that starts with a whitespace. That way the correct 
name is sent to the client.


This addresses bug 300988.

Testing (updated)
-------

- Create 150 folders and 150 text files whose name starts with a whitespace in 
a directory.
- Start your preferred ftp server (I tested with vsftpd) on your local machine 
and login.
- Make sure you can browse the directory that contains the text files and 
folders you created above just as quickly as you can other ftp sites.
- Rename some of the folders and text files by remove the leading whitespace 
from them and check if that is handled properly.


Thanks,

Dawit Alemayehu
