grep Delete job.h
    DeleteJob *del( const KURL& src, bool shred = false );
    DeleteJob *del( const KURL::List& src, bool shred = false );

Don't mix things up. With the new KIO, what the ioslave sees can be
VERY different from what the application sees.
libkio is not anymore a stupid interface between app and slave, it
actually does something.
