Hello dev list!

    I posted this on the user list already, but after working through it 
a bit I think this is the more correct place.  I've also filed a bug 
report for posterity.

    When creating a top folder using the 'new top folder' dialog and the 
fish kioslave I run into errors on servers where /home is not accessible 
to me.  This seems to be the default behavior on cPanel servers. 

    I can use a url like this in konqueror:
fish://user@server/home/user
Konqueror will let me browse files in the user's home directory.  For 
that matter, I can just use fish://user@server in Konqueror and I'm 
immediately dumped into the user's home directory without specifying.  
When I log in through SSH on the command line this is where I'm put, so 
that makes sense.

    In Quanta if I use 'fish://user@server' I initially see a listing of 
the server's root directory.  On some servers I can then browse to /home 
and then to /home/user, but on some servers I get permission denied on 
/home and Quanta won't continue from there.  I tried putting in the full 
path (fish://user@server/home/user/) and it seems that Quanta is parsing 
the path and attempting to get a directory listing on each element 
before moving on to the next (I see the 'working' icon as it moves 
down).  When Quanta can't get a directory listing on /home/ it errors out.

    I have tried manually creating the top folder entry in the quantarc 
file.  Once it's created I can use it and browse the files without problem.

    I don't know C++ at all so I can't be much help in tracking down 
code.  I filed a bug report here:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151631

    I'm more than happy to help solve this in whatever way I can - let 
me know what I can do.
