            Bug ID: 398216
           Summary: Automatically re-upload files at remote locations that
                    are saved from non-KIO software
           Product: frameworks-kio
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: fa...@kde.org
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
                CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Right now, when you use a non-KIO app to open a file located on a remote
location such as a Samba share, every time you save the file, you get an
annoying pop-up asking whether you want to re-upload the file to the server.
This is problematic for two reasons:
- It unnecessarily exposes an implementation detail (the fact that the file was
copied to a temporary cache instead of read from and written to the remote
location)
- The user's answer is "yes" 100% of the time (of course they want to re-upload
it back to the server; that's why they saved the file!)

Therefore, let's remove this dialog and just do it automatically.

If the remote location is read-only, only *then* should we display some kind of
message to the user when they save a changed document.
