Not so much showing the Konqueror bookmarks, but bookmarks *into* the file=
=20
system, especially on remote shares, make an enormous amount of sense to me=
=2E =20

I have to deal with SMB url's like=20
"//SERVER/SHARE/Ny Mapp (2)/M=E4rknadsf=F6ring/Bilder/originellt/2005-05-25=
/milj=F6=20
bild/gr=F6n/"  or "//SERVER/SHARE/Media/pdfer/ny pdfer/att maila/hemmet/rek=
lam=20
f=F6r juni.PDF"

A lot of them are either fairly short lived, or apparently randomly named b=

whoever made them, or sometimes both (I sometimes find things that were mea=
nt=20
to be short lived, but were so randomly named, they're still there 5 years=
=20
later.)

You better believe I bookmark them. I'd never find them again otherwise. =20

I presume I am not the only person doomed to suffer a fate of working with=

insane people who name things strangely and have enormous file servers and =
