You may need the user info for the actual user name that is being used
to search that work group. I would recommend using the path or query
component instead:

smb://userwg;user:password@/browsed_workgroup
smb://userwg;user:password@/?=search=browsed_workgroup

This searches the workgroup named "browsed_workgroup" with the user
"userwg\user".

The query has the added benefit a server inside the workgroup is a
proper sub-URL:

smb://userwg;user:password@server/share/folder/file.txt?search=browsed_workgroup

That is,

  QUrl wg("smb://user@/?search=WG");
  QUrl relative("/share/folder/file.txt");
  qDebug() << wg.resolved(relative);  // 
"smb://user@/share/folder/file.txt?search=WG"
