Usage case: Krusader is using a KUrlRequester to ask the user for the destination directory for a file move operation. Now, if the base directory is a symlink then the completion for relative paths is always made for the link destination and not the symlink location. E.g. if "/tmp/bin" is a link to "/bin" and the base directory for the URL completion is set with > urlCompletion->setDir("/tmp/bin"); then the completion suggestion when typing ".." is always made for "/" ("/bin", "/boot", "/etc", ...) but it should show completion for "/tmp". KUrlRequester->url() returns the unresolved url (e.g "/tmp/bin/..") and it can later be chosen what to do with it. But this is not possible for the url completion, so either changing the default behaviour or adding an option to set this in KUrlRequester or KUrlCompletion is fine.
