Description Victor Dodon 2014-06-07 16:39:44 UTC 
Only when selecting multiple files in KFileDialog, if a file contains in the name the characters '#' or '%', it is (wrongly) escaped.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create some files named f#1.png, f#2.png, f%1.png, f%2.png
2. Run: kdialog --multiple --getopenfilename ~ "*.png|PNG images"
Actual Results:  
KFileDialog returns:
/home/victor/f%231.png /home/victor/f%232.png /home/victor/f%251.png /home/victor/f%252.png

Expected Results:  
KFileDialog should return:
/home/victor/f#1.png /home/victor/f#2.png /home/victor/f%1.png /home/victor/f%2.png

This is also reproducible with the latest kdelibs build from master.
