I don't _know_ the latest word, but how are they ever going to eliminate kio
slaves?  They're right.  Konqueror is the web browser.  It shouldn't do
file management.  It doesn't now.  It merely provides a window and a menu
bar in which a kio slave can provide an interface, be it http:, sftp: or
file:.
