            Bug ID: 365356
           Summary: Dolphin supports WebDAV, but doesn't accept the dav://
                    URL scheme (Nautilus syntax)
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon Packages
               URL: https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/issues/307
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: caip...@fastmail.fm

Nautilus loads WebDAV servers with URLs such as:

    dav://localhost:42427/

While Dolphin prefer this instead:

    webdav://localhost:42427/Backup/

Developers of programs such as Cryptomator shouldn't have to test what file
manager you have installed to generate an appropriate link (see
https://github.com/cryptomator/cryptomator/issues/307). Dolphin could support
dav:// by itself, or convert it automatically to webdev:// in the address bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
You can reproduce this with any application that attempts to load a WebDAV URL
such as dav://localhost:42427/ , using dav:// as its protocol scheme. The
program I'm using is Cryptomator:

1. Install Cryptomator (http://cryptomator.org/)
2. Create a vault
3. Use the option to reveal a drive

Actual Results:  
I get an error because the program was coded to load dav://localhost:42427/
(Nautilus scheme) first, and use Dolphin (webdav://) just as a fallback option. 

Expected Results:  
The first URL with dav:// should have been loaded by Dolphin, since it's the
same protocol/technology. You just need to redirect it to webdav:// and make
any necessary changes.
