The official QtWebKit isn't being maintained, and AFAIK the rebooted 5.212 version uses mostly regular Qt for rendering but all that is moot because KMail hasn't used WebKit for quite a while now. It uses QtWebEngine instead (= it runs a private copy of Chromium's engine just to render HTML mail...), but maybe that's what you meant?
