yes Andras, you're right that's what you get out of this code.
But what you should get is /home/foo/kde
This is a bug, a fix whould be:

static void fixHomeDir(QString &dir)
{
   if (dir[0] == '~' && dir[1] == '/')
   {
      dir = QDir::homeDirPath() + dir.mid(1);
   }
   else
   {
      dir = "/home/" + dir.mid(1);
   }
}
