Till Adam reports KDE bug #259949 (address line completion) fixed

Tim Adams reported to the KDE Users mailing list that bug #259949 will be fixed in KDE release 4.9. This is good news indeed as this little nasty plagues a lot (all?) of KDE 4.8 users.

The unfortunate side of this news is that I picked exactly this bug for investigation myself. It was a great motivation for diving into the KDE platform. But then again, why not dissect it anyway? Plus,
two days ago my clone of the master branch of the KDE platform still exhibited the bug.
I will be back shortly with a report on how to set up and debug the KDE platform from sources.
