Public bug reported:

Since upgrading to 15.04 I cannot edit files accessed over ftp.  The
file appears to open but I end up with a blank file.  This worked fine
on earlier releases.

There are a number of reports of this on the Internet.  As documented
elsewhere I can get round the problem by editing file

/usr/share/applications/org.kde.kate.desktop

and removing %U from the "Exec=" line.

Don't know whether this has any negative impacts.
