[ale] running Konqueror as non-root + lan:/ ioslave + "illegal" port assignment for NFS

Hi folks,

   When I run Konqueror as non-root, and try to access non-insecure NFS mount points, I get "illegal port" messages on the NFS server (and the mount fails) because Konqueror is running as non-root and tries to connect with a non-standard (high) port.

   Is there any "safe" way to configure Konqueror so it can start the LAN browsing ioslave in priv mode?  Or is the only alternative to set-uid root the Konqueror binary?
