Konqueror servicemenus should probably still work, but I couldn't say for sure since I don't really use any. smb:/ and friends aren't actually related to konqueror or dolphin; most KDE apps can use those protocols. > Konqueror 3 and all of its file and network functionality is my favorite > part of KDE.

Well, much of that had to do with the overhaul and complete rewriting of the file-browsing component, so features weren't removed intentionally but rather because they hadn't been rewritten yet.
