If nested URLs were implemented in KURL and kio, wouldn't all KDE programs \
automatically be able to use them? In the case of non-KDE programs, they have to be \
tricked using temporary files anyway if they're supposed to work with ioslaves. So \
I'm not sure I understand the problem.

As for cleaning up or splitting up KURL, I don't think that necessarily rules out \
extending its functionality, as long as it's done in a coherent and well though-out \
way.

Thinking about it, things like tar and zip aren't really protocols, but filters, so \
perhaps a syntax along the following lines might be worth considering:

sftp://user server/dir/archive tgz|tar/file

This would allow for multiple filters without requiring parentheses and correspond \
nicely with shell syntax. (But I suspect the bar character isn't available to be used \
like that?) _______________________________________________
