kfiledialog uses kfmlib to do all of its url handling, so the cache is
unified (as are proxy settings etc.). This also means we get any new
protocols that may be added to kfm in future for free.

I suspect what we need is a way to call kfm's reload using kfmlib. I
don't
think this existed when we wrote this code, does it exist now? If not
we'll
need to a add it.
