Version: (using KDE 4.1.1) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled From Sources Right clicking in in the location bar in Dolphin while in the regular "Location Navigation" mode and selecting Copy will copy the whole URL. For local files that would be file:///something. It would be better to return just the absolute path if the file is local (/something). That makes the path usable outside of KDE apps (e.g. pasting in a console).
Submitted patch for review at http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/1192/
SVN commit 1006184 by ppenz: When copying an URL, it should use /a/b/c for local URLs instead of file:///a/b/c to make the URL usable outside of KDE apps. Thanks to Shane Gibbs for the patch!
