The question comes up regularly, but it would be useful if you could actually 
do some research on who uses these uri/ mimetypes.

For all/all and all/allfiles I can answer it: all/allfiles can be removed and 
replaced with application/octet-stream,
all/all is basically application/octet-stream+inode/directory  (everything is 
either a file or a directory).

You can adjust the code below, and then document the change in the porting 
docs, and then remove the mimetypes from kde5.xml.

./kde4support/tests/kfstest.cpp:63:    filter << "all/allfiles" << "text/plain";
./kde4support/tests/kfstest.cpp:64:    dlg->setMimeFilter(filter, 
"all/allfiles");
./kde4support/tests/kfstest.cpp:142:            filter << "all/allfiles" << 
"text/plain";
./kde4support/tests/kfstest.cpp:143:            dlg->setMimeFilter(filter, 
"all/allfiles");
./kde4support/src/kio/kfiledialog.h:243:     * To add a filter item for all 
files matching @c '*', add @c all/allfiles
./kservice/src/kbuildsycoca/kbuildservicefactory.cpp:172:    // TODO do the 
same for all/all and all/allfiles, if 
(!KServiceTypeProfile::configurationMode())
./kservice/src/services/kservicetypeprofile.h:66: * This method activates a 
special mode of KServiceTypeProfile, in which all/all
./kservice/src/services/kservicetypeprofile.h:67: * and all/allfiles are 
excluded from the results of the queries.
./kio/src/filewidgets/kfilefiltercombo.cpp:190:        
d->m_filters.append(QLatin1String("all/allfiles"));
