When copying the entire address from Chrome's address bar (not just parts of it, needs to be the full address), QMimeData::hasUrls() returns true but I get two invalid URLs.

QMimeData::formats() returns

("TARGETS", "SAVE_TARGETS", "MULTIPLE", "text/plain", "text/uri-list", "chromium/x-bookmark-entries")

and getting the raw data from text/uri-list gives me the following

h\0t\0t\0p\0s\0:\0/\0/\0c\0o\0d\0e\0.\0g\0o\0o\0g\0l\0e\0.\0c\0o\0m\0/

which looks like Ascii in Unicode. it seems the first \0 is interpreted as end of string and stuff breaks.

I'm filing this here since I am rather clueless what to do and who's responsible for this. Chrome possibly sending broken data (copying a file from KDE's file manager Dolphin results in proper URLs), Qt for breaking with this data or KDE's Klipper for ignoring the priority order.

The relevant Chromium bug with a simple code snippet can be found here [1].
