With `krarc`, users can open 7z and RAR files as folder in Dolphin (with patches [1] [2]). This is also useful for Gwenview - if you have pictures in a 7z or RAR archive, then you can view them in Gwenview without decompressing the whole archive to another location. However, I'm not sure whether it's appropriate to add these Krusader-specific things to KIO. [1] For Krusader, add `application/vnd.rar` to `archiveMimetype` in `krArc/krarc.protocol` [2] For KIO, add `mime.inherits(QStringLiteral("application/vnd.rar"))` and `mime.inherits(QStringLiteral("application/x-7z-compressed"))` to `KUrlNavigator::Private::isCompressedPath` in `src/filewidgets/kurlnavigator.cpp` REPOSITORY R241 KIO REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D20424 To: nhiga, kde-frameworks-devel, ngraham Cc: bcooksley, aacid, ngraham, michaelh, bruns
