Yes. I read about some Plasma / KDE developers wanting to go FUSE way tough, cause KIO is Plasma/KDE only and other applications like LibreOffice do not understand it. In the end it is all about non blocking I/O on network filesystems. Also: Is there an NFS kio slave? I think there is only a CIFS one. In addition to File in shell (fish://) or SFTP (sftp://) and all the other non traditional network filesystem ones. Thanks, -- Martin
