SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Click in the location bar in Dolphin or in an Open/Save dialog 2. Type e.g. '/ho' 3. Press 'TAB' key OBSERVED RESULT Instead like in previous Releases (Up to kio 5.72.0) only '/home' instead of '/home/' is auto-completed. So to navigate to deeper folders i have to manually add a '/' after every auto-complete step. EXPECTED RESULT That autosuggestion works as before (you only have to use TAB, arrow keys and the first few letters of a folder), as it also works in Shells like bash and fish (they also add the '/' after tabbed file/folder-name completion).

Hmm, I recall that this was an intentional change to fix Bug 420966. But the originator doesn't seem like we made the right fix. Thoughts?
Please do check over the conversation Nate linked. While this is broken, I've put kio-append-slash in the AUR, and I recommend to change your completion mode to "Dropdown List" (right click editable location bar).
