Did you test that the warning still appears when clicking on links, in both web engines, in both the "standalone page" case and inside frames?
BrowserRun is used as a base class in both konqueror (KonqRun) and khtml (BrowserRun, used for frames). I'm not 100% sure, but I'm afraid this change might have removed the warnings in a case where they are needed. Hmm, well, the metadata comes from khtmlpart in the first place, so maybe it works, I just want to ask if you tested the case where the warnings -should- appear :-)

And these two situations are conditions that should be handled by the browsing engines directly.
