To reiterate. The use case is to avoid redundant code doing this over and over just like KShell::tildeExpand does : plasma-desktop/kcms/kfontinst/lib/Misc.cpp:391 plasma-desktop/kcms/baloo/filteredfoldermodel.cpp:50 plasma-workspace/runners/baloo/baloosearchrunner.cpp:176 plasma-workspace/libnotificationmanager/job_p.cpp:120 solid/src/solid/devices/backends/fstab/fstabdevice.cpp:61 I thought the header documentation and commit comment would be sufficient to explain the intent and the usefullness. After all it is just the opposite of tildeExpand.
