--- Comment #24 from rob.dyck at telus.net ---
I have done some experimenting with troublesome links. No great discoveries.
All the links I have found in akregator fail to launch with left click. Links
in kmail may or may not launch with left click. Middle click always works.

With troublesome links I found if I copy them and use them else where ( like
paste into a line on konsole ) a left click will work. Also if I forward the
email with the troublesome link, even to the original recipient, I can launch
the link with a left click. This suggests that it is the context and not the
link itself that is causing the issue.

As for the error message ( Can not adopt content from a different
WebEngineProfile ) a web search didn't find anything ( i used duckduck ).
Duck AI came up with some suggestions.

The error message "Cannot adopt content from a different WebEngineProfile"
typically occurs in applications that use web engines, such as those built on
Chromium or similar frameworks. This error indicates that there is an attempt
to share or transfer content (like cookies, sessions, or other data) between
different web engine profiles, which is not allowed due to security and
isolation measures.

Possible Causes and Solutions
1. Profile Isolation
Cause: Each web engine profile is designed to be isolated from others to
maintain security and privacy.
Solution: Ensure that you are using the same profile for all operations. If you
need to share data, consider using a common profile or explicitly managing data
transfer.
2. Incorrect Context Usage
Cause: The application may be trying to access content from a different context
or session.
Solution: Check your code to ensure that all content access is happening within
the same context. Avoid mixing contexts from different profiles.
3. Session Management
Cause: If your application manages multiple sessions, it might inadvertently
try to access data from a different session.
Solution: Review your session management logic to ensure that sessions are
correctly handled and isolated.
