Hi,
i think it is very usefull, if the konsole cuts the prefix "file:/" (or also other prefixes) from the pasted content.

example:
copy the address/path "file:/home/user/xyz" from konqueror's address field and
paste it into the konsole-window should result in a pasting "/home/user/xyz".

This should be done for prefixes, if the pasted content is an URL.

(if people don't like the above idea, then, the konsole should at least handle
URL's. i.e. "cd file:/home/user/xyz" should _not_ result in:
   bash: cd: file:/home/user/xyz: File or Directory not found.
instead, it should change the directory to the path /home/user/xyz)

Thanks..
