There is one use case (copy of dirs with rename, due name conflict) where the patches not work, and I can't test on *BSD or Mac. The first problem says I would need to add a very similar snippet in a third place, i trying to find right now, (any help from someone that knows KIO better than me is appreciated) but after this, we would need to rewrite as a function, to remove code duplication (and I'm open for suggestions of where to place it, as KIO is a rather big codebase). Baloo uses some very similar functions, from where i so maybe we can unify the implementations in KIO level. So I'm planning to change things, but need some review to do this.
