Review request for kdelibs and Andrea Diamantini.


Changes
-------

Updated the previous version of the patch as follows:

- Handle the case where downloadResponse is called because of a content-dis=
position header for a text/html content. Note the fix for this case is real=
ly a hack based on what Konqueror does in its KonqMainWindow class. I just =
do not see any better way to handle this better at this point unless, I imp=
lement my own dialog to prompt the user for the desired action take on unsu=
pported content.

- Remove the ioslave on hold if the application selected to open the conten=
t in downloadResponse is a non-KDE application.

- Avoid unnecessary copying when setting the kio meta-data in KIO::AccessMa=
nager.


Summary
-------

The attached patch fixes a long standing issue in the KIO-QNAM class where =
actions that require putting an ioslave on hold currently do not work. In k=
dewebkit, which uses this integration class, such actions always occur when=
 you click on a link that cannot be directly handled by the browsing engine=
. For example, clicking on a link that points to a PDF link. Even worse is =
when the link you click on results in an http POST which returns content. I=
n such cases, apps that rely on kdewebkit and hence the KIO-QNAM bridge cla=
ss have no way of putting an ioslave on hold as stated in KIO::get's docume=
ntation in order to properly deal with content types they do not support.

The attached patch along with another pending against kio_http, http://revi=
ewboard.kde.org/r/6182/, remedies this issue by adding a means to put repli=
es on hold and fixing the downloadResponse slot in KWebPage to do the right=
 thing.
