Thank you Felix.

It appears that the sidebar creates a user copy of it's desktop files, which 
has the disadvantage that it doesn't know about the changed URL in KDE 4.
While in KDE 3 the URL file:$HOME worked perfectly fine, in KDE 4 it is 
necessary to use ~ as URL. Ultimately the sidebar would have some way to 
correct the old URL, so this really should be reported to KDE as well. Another 
solution would be to make the the file:// protocol support the old $HOME and 
just redirect it to the proper destination.

Felix, if you have time, it would be very nice if you could file an
accompanying in the KDE bug tracker at http://bugs.kde.org (I suppose
konqsidebar has an own product entry, otherwise it would probably be
part of konqueror) and post its URL here. Otherwise someone from the
team will forward the report ... at some point ... hopefully ;-)

Have a nice day.
