This isn't symmetric. operator< must have the property that a<b and b<a aren't both \
true, and that they are both false only if the items are equal.

If `this` is a valid item and `other` is null, then this code says that *this<other \
is false and other<*this is false. Which would let some algorithms deduce that *this \
== other, which is completely wrong.

If we decide that a null item is inferior to anything else, then we need

  if (!d) return true; if (!other.d) return false;

(with newlines and braces of course).

This also calls for a corresponding unittest.

This one looks good.

> kfileitem.h:499
> +     */
> +    bool operator<(const QUrl &other) const;
> +

This operator seems strange to me, it's comparing a KFileItem and a QUrl, which are \
two different kinds of objects... What's the use case?
