What's especially strange is that fish to

So, the test(s) shows that problem occurs within my local workstation,
and should rule out any issue with the remote hosts.
I have to believe the problem is in konqueror or some sub-component it
uses for this feature/function.
Back in the 2012 days there was a bug with sftp:// that Tim patched, but in
that case fish continued to work. If both sftp and fish fail in konqueror, but
work in konsole from the command line, then that would point to a
tdelibe/kio_slaves (or maybe tdebase) I haven't looked in ages. There is
global component that coordinate the kioslaves themselves as well as source
file for each individual slave (e.g. sftp, fish, etc..)
Ahhh... I thought fish and sftp were realized "internally".

(The output from `locate fish | egrep '(bin|lib)'` needed editing
to eliminate non-applicable system/application components.)
The fact that it works on the command line would tend
to rule out a
name-resolution issue.
That, and the fact that it fails using ip destination addressing.
And, why would it work -- out of all the possible sftp & fish
combinations I tried -- ONLY with fish://jonesy@localhost/
I believe it was working up to the most recent system update I did.
That update brought in a bunch of system (Ubuntu) and Trinity changes.
I still believe the problem lies with konqueror -- or with a new
incompatibility between konqueror (Trinity) and Ubuntu.
I can readily do almost everything I need with command line ssh,
sftp, and sshfs. But, there are some maintenance activities that
would be SO MUCH easier and straightforward with konqueror.
