    I had to read the whole patch to understand "url is set to the first path segment \
that leads from N to O".  
    First, N and O don't help readability, I first thought the O was 0... maybe just \
spell out "the new url" and "the old url".  
    Also, a url is not a path. So this could say something like:
    
    \a url is set to the child directory of the new url which is an ancestor of the \
old url  
    I would then add "this signal allows file managers to pre-select the directory \
that the user is navigating up from".

    Signal names usually end with "ed", they reflect a state change or an action \
change.  
    "select" here is what you want the app to do (now that I read the bug report; \
otherwise it was very unclear just from the API docs), but you have no guarantee that \
the app will do that.  
    void urlChangedToParent(const QUrl &ancestorOfPreviousUrl)
    
    ?
    
    An alternative is to let the app do the "finding the immediate child" logic by \
just emitting  
    void urlChangedToParent(const QUrl &oldUrl, const QUrl &newUrl)
    
    It seems to me that this is a better signal, because it's more generic. On the \
other hand, if you are afraid that multiple apps would then need to implement the \
"first child" logic, then this could be done by a helper method in this class. But at \
least the signal has a much more generic purpose than being geared towards this \
specific feature,  which increases the chances that it is useful for other things \
later.
