The error message makes it clear that this is not a problem with Sigil, but 
with your system. kfilemodule is a part of KDE, not Sigil.

The bug happens when the KDE-native file picker is used, this is when using 
Sigil under KDE4.

Using Sigil under other desktop environments, Sigil uses the native Qt file 
picker, which doesn't exhibit this annoying bug (I get that error dialogue 
three time for each "Save as"...). 

Could there be an option in Sigil to select which file dialogue is used under 
KDE4? a run time switch or an environment variable...

FWIW, this is a dupe of http://code.google.com/p/sigil/issues/detail?id=750

On further investigation I noticed that unchecking "Automatically select 
filename extension (.epub)" in the "Save as" dialogue seems to take care of 
this issue under KDE4.
