I really think there is a limitation.

When I wanted to write a KIO for RDBMS, I wanted to prompt some info :

User :
Password :
RDBMS type :
Database :
TCP Port :

As far as I remember, there is a way to ask User/Password from a kio. Why
not providing a way to ask some other informations ?

BTW, the only solution I'd found is to generate an HTML form, and ask the
user to fill it in...
