The thing is, it should copy only for those applications that need it. The
.desktop file specifies whether an application accepts any URL (%u) or even
multiple ones (%U) or only a local file (%f) / local files (%F).
Doing the copy for applications declared to take one or more URL(s) is a bug
in Dolphin and should be reported at bugs.kde.org.
