I think the current filex:/ approach is not optimal. How about making a KIO slave that would process urls like "media:/$uuid or $label/path/file" and using such urls directly? No conversions, no mess, apps don't have to be aware they're handling removable media, kio can politely ask to insert the SD card or a CD. This way you still can keep the regular file:// urls although technically these too can be replaced by media:/ kio. -- Evgeny _______________________________________________ Nepomuk mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/nepomuk
