Description Rolf Eike Beer 2022-05-31 10:20:11 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open a file using a remote protocol like sftp
2. try to "save as"

OBSERVED RESULT
You will get a warning "file sftp://path/to/file/filename does not exist", and the whole filename is shown in the folder view.
Nitpick: the error message is also not wrapped so it's often cut off for longer paths.

EXPECTED RESULT
The filename should be cut off before trying to open the target directory.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
I have observed this at least in 20.04.2 and 22.04.1, both from Kate as well as KDevelop.
