Hello,

While investigating bug #105931 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105931), 
I run into two separate uri filter plugins that should have been combined into 
one to begin with. The filters I am speaking of are kdebase/runtime/kurifilter-
plugins/localdomain and kdebase/runtime/kurilfilter-plugins/fixhost. Both of 
these filter do a DNS query to filter the url. If both of them end up getting 
executed, there can be up to 3 DNS queries when the user types a "short" url 
like "foo" before the request ever gets to the networking (KIO) layer. By 
combining the two, we can cut that down to 2 DNS queries at most. Plus the 
fixup host filter plugin uses a deprecated class anyhow and that needs to be 
addressed as well.

Any objections to doing that ? If not, I guess I will put it in my long TODO 
list to await its turn...

Regards,
Dawit A.
