I could test it a bit. However, I did not yet fully understand how to trigger its usage.

For the reasons above, I'd be > more included for a suggest only (which means not installed by > default). In order to have an opinion on that I'd like to know how it actually is triggered. I thought opening a directory with for example FISH kio slave in Dolphin would not yet trigger it, cause Dolphin is KIO aware. But I also thought that when I tell Dolphin to open a file from such a directory with a non kio-slave aware application it would do the FUSE thing. Yet here, despite kio-fuse installed, running as process and despite its DBUS interface being available, the application does not open the file. Also I see no FUSE mount. If kio-fuse is only triggered if specifically asked to by an user in some way I'd say a recommend would be fine enough. At least here it does not seem to replace KIO slaves in KIO slave aware applications – I wonder whether upstream will replace that slave terminology… so the possible impact of recommending it in kde-standard may be quite low. I will ask upstream how to actually trigger and use KIO fuse as it at the moment is not immediately obvious to me. Best, -- Martin
