Subject: Always enable the "Create New..." menu if the URL is writable
X-Git-Url: https://cloud.milkyroute.net/gitweb/dolphin.git/commitdiff_plain/900a4ba3b9213802c2c7a5329f88704f9f664c70

Always enable the "Create New..." menu if the URL is writable

This commit works around the problem that KDirLister may not provide a
"rootItem" for some kioslaves by setting up a KFileItem with the view
URL and using this to find out if the URL is writable.
