Thanks for the links. After reading the thread I didn't see a real
consensus and I agree that displaying file:/// instead of file: is just
visual noise for the average user and something that he cannot
understand especially because KDE used to display only file:/ and
accepted (and still accepts) that form. Well, I don't want to repeat
the discussion here if it is avoidable. ;-) Just MHO.
