Just wanted to note: To unhide any of the file extensions affected by this change / Dolphin 23.08, use "File Associations" in System Settings to create a new file type for them. To the contrary, removing *.old and *.bak from the "application/x-trash" association still kept them hidden (which makes sense since the file types probably fell back to the system association, which is still "application/x-trash") Might be stating the obvious, but I think this tip might help someone stumbling into this in future.

Well that's not true, at least most of the time. Only devs can make such decisions. Here I am thankful this was still opened, or I wouldn't have worked on it.

- Do editors in 2023 still save files like sth.txt~, sth.txt.bak and similars? Yes, they do. Some skip that when working inside git/hg/svn/… folder, some allow to use separate folder, but such files are still fairly frequent. - Would some users prefer not to see those files? Yes. For example myself. - Does KDE allow user to manage which files are hidden, and which are not? No, it doesn't. There is option to show or hide „Hidden files” but no way to influence which file is considered to be „Hidden”. So functionality-wise bug is just as sound and valid, as it was when it was reported. Projects make various priorities, open-source projects even more so (considering people come to work on what they fancy or what they find troublesome). Some bugs are less lucky. But if there is to be any hope, the open issue means the thought of doing sth is not abandoned.

It wasn't clear. I was suggesting it could be built-in (as suggested x-trash), like having a checkbox "[x] also hide application/x-trash files when hiding files". A built-in mime-type has the advantage of being easier to implement and less complexity exposed to the user.

It would be nice to be able to configure what mimetypes should be hidden (so that I can then create a custom mimetype that matches the folders/files I want to hide).
