Bug#518354: konqueror: the address bar doe snot preserve (~) but expands it

[jaalto <jari.aalto@cante.net>]

Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6
Severity: normal


1. Copy address from terminal

    ~/tmp

2. Paste it into konqeror's address bar. Press RET to activate panel

3. The address bar epxands the tild(~)

Please do not expand the HOME directory tilde (~). If the path is
later on copied to another applications from konqueror's address bar, it
no longer conveys necessarily the same meaning.

   You copy absolute path ....
   which is not the same in another NFS host, where you might "take"
   the patch location from konqueror's address bar by copy/pasting.

   ... but the tilde path would have been the same in NFS/automounted
   ... hosts

Please preserve the tilde as is in the adddress bar.
