Many of these are related to privacy implicitly or explicitly, but as said,
I can patch these locally. Don't get me wrong: I like the cleanness of the
code base, and I probably need to go deeper into QtWebEngine for some
things.

But more generally: what is the next milestone with the browser, say?  

I went through the whole bug tracker, and didn't see any pressing issues
worth paying attention to.  Well, except bug #396024, which is generally a
big issue, but I suppose still easy enough to address if there are no
blocking plans?
