* The above code should yield the following output:
* <pre>
*   URI: kde.org
*   Filtered URI: http://kde.org
*   URI Type: 0            <== means NET_PROTOCOL
*   Was Filtered: 1        <== means the URL was successfully filtered

/**
 * Manages the filtering of a URI.
 *
 * The intention of this plugin class is to allow people to extend
 * the functionality of KURL without modifying it directly.  This
 * way KURL will remain a generic parser capable of parsing any
 * generic URL that adheres to specifications.
 *
 * The KURIFilter class applies a number of filters to a URI,
 * and returns the filtered version whenever possible. The filters
 * are implemented using plugins to provide easy extensibility
 * of the filtering mechanism.  That is, new filters can be added in
 * the future by simply inheriting from @ref KURIFilterPlugin and
 * implementing the @ref KURIFilterPlugin::filterURI method.
 *
 * Use of this plugin-manager class is straight forward.  Since
 * it is a singleton object, all you have to do is obtain an instance
 * by doing @p KURIFilter::self() and use any of the public member
 * functions to preform the filtering.
 * 
 * @sect Example
 *
 * To simply filter a given string:
 * <pre>
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( "kde.org" );
 * </pre>
 * 
 * You can alternatively use a KURL:
 * <pre>
 * KURL url = "kde.org";
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( url );
 * </pre>
 *
 * If you have a constant string or a constant URL,
 * simply invoke the corresponding function to obtain
 * the filtered string or URL instead of a boolean flag:
 * <pre>
 * QString u = KURIFilter::self()->filteredURI( "kde.org" );
 * </pre>
 *
 * You can also specify only specific filter(s) to be applied
 * by supplying the name(s) of the filter(s).  By defualt all
 * filters that are found are loaded when the KURIFilter object
 * is created will be used.  These names are taken from the
 * enteries in the \".desktop\" files.  Here are a couple of
 * examples:
 * <pre>
 * QString text = "kde.org";
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( text, "KShortURIFilter" );
 *
 * QStringList list;
 * list << "KShortURIFilter" << "MyFilter";
 * bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filterURI( text, list );
 * </pre>
 *
 * KURIFilter also allows richer data exchange through a simple
 * meta-object called @p KURIFilterData.  Using this meta-object
 * you can find out more information about the URL you want to
 * filter.  See @ref KURIFilterData for examples and details.
 *
 * @short Filters a given URL into its proper format whenever possible.
