Hmm, in windows this is indeed allowed thus for consistency between windows/linux it might be handy to implement this. The implementation would simply replace "\\" by "smb://". The current behavior tries to open a webbrowser which is wrong since url's simply don't have "\\" neither can it be assumed by "\\". A network path can be assumed when the it starts with "\\" Perhaps this can be done as a kurifilter just like ftp.example.com is (in kde 4.6) translated to ftp://ftp.example.com

Not backportinng this to 4.5 branch is just forgotten or an intentional decision?
intentional. Or rather, i don't dare to backport it. Just wait for 4.6.. You can very simply use smb:// instead of \\ for the moment so it's not like you miss something if it's not backported.
