STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open Dolphin 2. click on "Network" in Places panel 3. double-click on "Add network folder" OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin asks if I want to open/execute/cancel EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin should open KNetAttach without showing any dialog SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2
Gross. Probably fallout from adding setOpenExecutables(true) for the openUrlJob, because this icon is technically an executable desktop file, and the default behavior for executable files is to ask rather than always executing. I really don't like the UX here anyway. I think something much better would be to add this action as a button in the toolbar next to the URL Navigator while the view is visible, just like we do for the "Empty Trash" action while viewing the Trash folder. I can look into that.
Gah this is way more complicated than I expected. :/ Just adding the button to the URL navigator's row is very tricky due to the new positioning code, and even after that, I need to figure out a way to tell the remote:/ kioslave to not display the knetattach icon when displayed in Dolphin.
Will be fixed by https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/merge_requests/260 and https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/145
Git commit e54d2e483db5d52819a24414e8ea9259ebb3415d by Nate Graham. Committed on 27/12/2020 at 14:50. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Remove knetattach item from the remote:// ioslave's view This commit removes the knetattach item from the remote:// ioslave's view entirely. knetattach lives in Plasma, so this amounts to an unmarked dependency on Plasma within KIO, which is not appropriate. Furthermore, Having a desktop entry in the view of the ioslave that launches an app is kind of a weird UX, and its functionality is largely unnecessary bceause you can just connect to the server by its URL and be prompted for your username and password. If you want to create a permanent link to the server, you can add it to the places panel or use a shortcut. However for those who would like to continue using knetattach, I plan to add a contextually-aware button in Dolphin to open the app, and if that happens without this, we will have two redundant ways to launch knetattach from the remote:// view.

Show button to open knetattach inline with URL nav on Remote:// view In conjunction with https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/merge_requests/260, the net result is to hide the knetattach launcher in the view, and show it inline with Dolphin's URL navigator toolbar when viewing the remote:// view, just like how we add an "Empty Trash" button when viewing trash://.
