As konsole is responsible for _sending_ user input to the program running in the \
terminal, it could check if the program is a shell if so, act as a wrapper for that. \
(Face it: using a shell is a fairly common practise among konsole users.)

Now, if the program running in konsole is a shell - and konsole knows it - it could \
intercept the user input before it gets delivered to the shell and check if there is \
something that would be appropriate to be handled by an ioslave (for example a \
reference to http or webdav) and make an appropriate decision. Equally, for output it \
could search for redirects (">") to such places and take the appropriate measure.

If this option was enabled as a command line parameter, it would make it possible to \
write kio-aware shell scripts. Of course it would need to be disabled by default, or \
it would confuse the truly network-aware apps, like links or wget. On the other hand, \
having this functionaity would give increased "it just works" feeling to all users of \
kde. _______________________________________________
