Well, if you study your history, konqueror (known as kfm, see list name) was 
started before mozilla went open source.  So it's not exactly reinventing the 
wheel, as our wheel was there first.  And if you want to use gecko in 
konqueror, instead of khtml, then do a google search for kmozilla. 

But you know what?  I bet nobody has thought of using mozilla before in KDE.  
What were we *thinking*!?!?!?  Faure, Koos, Dirk, on reflection, I think it's 
time we gave it all up.  Screw it! Mozilla all the way, baby!
