In the KDE systems settings, go to "File Associations".

From there, you'd be seeing a tree of "known types", go to "inode" and then "directory", you can add a new program by clicking "Add..." in the "General > Application Preference Order" area.

What's happening here is that you're adding a program to handle the "inode/directory" mimetype. Because of that, this change isn't limited to Konsole, but will also affect other programs.

You are a godsend. Thanks for this. I wish I could send you more internet gratitude. Really you made my life a ton easier.

No problem. I actually discovered this via an entirely different route, and it can really be frustrating sometimes.

KDE Plasma is so powerful and provides a metric ton of options. However, a lot of them are lying "hidden" like this. Still, kudos to KDE Plasma for having these options be configurable via a GUI, in a more or less logical place.
