My guess is the same root cause as why my Geckos hang when tabs are open to
files on (OS/2) LANMAN shares CIFS mounted (manually) get broken on the
server end (about every 10 days or so unless OS/2 rebooted), showing in mtab,
but not available. Something in KDE seems to be demanding an unneeded access,
maybe some prefetch process for increased file picker speed.
