I didn't know that.  Thanks for all the info!

On thinking about this further I wonder how hard it would be to replace
our KHTML with KDE's KHTML.  I don't want to drag in a bunch of KDE
libraries but there was an effort some time ago to make certain core KDE
features use less of the non-core KDE libraries.

Does anyone know the status of KHTML in KDE4?  Is it just as broken as our
version or has it been maintained over time?  I was under the impression
that KHTML had been largely abandoned but now I'm not sure...

Thanks!

Tim
