By the way, these are the KIO operations:

	SimpleJob mkdir(KUrl)
	SimpleJob rmdir(KUrl)
	SimpleJob chmod(KUrl, int)
	SimpleJob chown(KUrl, QString, QString)
	SimpleJob setModificationTime(KUrl, QDateTime) (POSIX utime)
	SimpleJob rename(KUrl, KUrl)
	SimpleJob symlink(QString, KUrl)
	SimpleJob mount
	SimpleJob unmount
	StatJob stat(KUrl)
	FileJob open(KUrl)
	TransferJob get(KUrl)
	TransferJob put(KUrl)
	TransferJob http_post(KUrl, QByteArray)
	TransferJob http_delete(KUrl)
	MultiGetJob multi_get(KUrl)
	MimetypeJob mimetype(KUrl)
	FileCopyJob file_copy(KUrl, KUrl)
	FileCopyJob file_move(KUrl, KUrl)
	SimpleJob file_delete(KUrl)
	ListJob listDir(KUrl)
	ListJob listRecursive(KUrl)
	SimpleJob special

SimpleJob is a job that simply finishes, there is no data transfer in either 
direction. Data-transferring jobs are TransferJob and StoredTransferJob (which 
QNetworkReply was based on). StatJob and MimetypeJob are SimpleJobs with a bit 
of extra information but I don't know why both exist. ListJob is a like the 
TransferJob but it doesn't give you data, it gives you parsed directory 
listing.

The FileJob is an interesting one that it allows you to perform seek(), read() 
and write() while it's open. It's the only random-access job and the only that 
allows interleaved I/O.

The FileCopyJob is an operation that downloads from one server and uploads to 
another, then optionally issues a delete command.
