By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Darrell 2012-11-04 10:56:50 CST 
Konqueror is one of the great all-time file managers. Yet when copying files the default behavior is to inherit the ownership of the user and not the target directory.

This is frustrating when using Konqueror with tdesu as root and copying files to a normal user's $HOME directory. The copied files will have ownership of root:root rather than user:user.

Midnight commander (mc) gets this right. The copied files have ownership of the user. Therefore the mc code should provide an idea what is needed.

Whether to add a GUI control is open to discussion. Possibly no GUI control is needed. That is, just perform the same behavior as mc to inherit target ownership.
