I'd suggest to remove the hint about inserting the password directly  
into the URL. It is shown in cleartext and eventually stored as such  
in the bookmarks. We shouldn't advertise this as "the way to go". In  
Krusader we even hat some code to remove the password from the URL  
before storing it as bookmark. Those how want their passwords to be  
stored should use the wallet.

Otherwise it's nice that you highlighted the fact that most KDE  
applications can access remote URLs directly from their open/save  
dialog. Although present since KDE2 this advantage of a network-aware  
desktop is still new for many users.

bye,
Jonas
