Description Jakob Simon-Gaarde 2015-10-11 16:44:25 UTC 
If I open a file from a remote location using KIO (etc: sftp://jakob@clipster.info:22/home/jakob/some/sub/path/test.py) I expect that if I press open it will send me directly to the directory of the file: 

sftp://jakob@clipster.info:22/home/jakob/some/sub/path

On Kubuntu this hasn't been the case since the move was made to Plasma 5.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a file from a remote filesystem
2. Press "Open..."
3. Open dialog starts in my $HOME directory

Actual Results:  
Dialog opens in $HOME dir

Expected Results:  
That the dialog opens in the directory of the remote file currently being edited.
