Yes we surely need something in kdelibs... I'd see two things to add:
1) Another attribute in KProtocolInfo to check if the ioslave can provide 
UDS_LOCAL_PATH (it's only for optimization purpose... no need to check it if 
the ioslave never provides it)
2) KURL KIO::NetAccess::localURL(KURL url), which will return a file:/ url if 
possible (after stating it can find a UDS_LOCAL_PATH) or KURL() otherwise. 
It'll basically be done by stating the given url and parsing the result, 
it'll be convenient if you need to check only the local path... and stat() is 
still here if you need more information.

This way applications that have no access to KFileItem still can work 
correctly with files having the UDS_LOCAL_PATH atom.

Regards.
