Well this can be done in kdelibs-frameworks right now. You'll just have to also find a solution locally for your own app. -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Sponsored by Nokia to work on KDE, incl.

However, there is currently a kind of freeze for features in kdelibs so you might have to work on that in a subclass of your own for the time being. But hopefully in a way that results in this extended functionality being part of the respective classes in KDE frameworks 5.

Extending KZip class
I'm trying to improve the karchive plugin of ark to have better support for zip files but unfortunately there are some things missing from the KZip class like support for encrypted archives and file deletion. Should I create patches for the KZip/KArchive classes or just subclass KZip class and do all the necessary changes locally?
