Description Loïc Yhuel 2014-07-18 04:00:33 UTC 
In a file dialog, when entering an absolute path in "Name" field and pressing enter (either a directory to navigate to, or a file to open), I get a "Cannot open file" dialog, with an error like "The file "/home/" could not be found".
It works with an absolute path url, like "file:///home".

Seen with both KFileDialog (for example kfontview) and KDEPlatformFileDialog (for example qtcreator).

Note that :
 - It worked on KDE4
 - The default Qt5.3 file dialog (ie when not using KDEPlatformTheme), has the opposite behavior (/home works, file:///home doesn't work).
