Please stop using file engines. They are a feature we want to get rid of.

The reason is that normal, plain file access is extremely complex and slow 
because of the abstractions created by the presence of multiple file engines. 
We are rewriting the QFile / QDir / QDirIterator internals to be faster. 

However, this is only possible if you never install file engines. So I 
recommend that you already stop using them in your new programs.
