Yes, it requires the containment to find out the mimetype of a remote file,
and then downloading this file. I've now implemented this for the Picture
frame, and I need to fix up my patch that implementes the necessary changes in
containment. I had hoped to get this into 4.3, but ran into issues I've not
yet been able to fix. See my email with subject "dropping remote content
vol.2" for the details. The idea is that we retrieve the mimetype through KIO,
then offer the applets that can handle that mimetype. The applets then need to
understand how to load files from remote URLs by parameter. Use cases are
indeed dropping remote text files, HTML pages, pictures onto Plasma, but also
passing data "by reference" (for example an akonadi:// url).
I'd like to make remote content on Plasma just work, though it'll require
fixing some applets (not that hard, once you know what's needed).
I'm still on it, though :)
