/**
 * The dir lister deals with the kiojob used to list and update a directory
 * and has signals for the user of this class (e.g. konqueror view or
 * kdesktop) to create/destroy its items when asked.
 *
 * This class is independent from the graphical representation of the dir
 * (icon container, tree view, ...) and it stores the items (as KFileItems).
 *
 * Typical usage :
 * Create an instance.
 * Connect to at least update, clear, newItem, and deleteItem.
 * Call openURL - the signals will be called.
 * Reuse the instance when opening a new url (openURL).
 * Destroy the instance when not needed anymore (usually destructor).
 *
 * Advanced usage : call openURL with _keep = true to list directories
 * without forgetting the ones previously read (e.g. for a tree view)
 *
 * @short Helper class for the kiojob used to list and update a directory.
