It's simple. When using a browser, I regard interoperability between browsers
higher than integration within the DE. That's the current behaviour of
*every* major browser out there, I don't see a reason why Konqueror should
break that.
For example, take keyboard shortcuts. Ctrl+R has always been used as a means
to reload a page. NN supports it, Mozilla supports it, IE supports it, Opera
supports it, but Konqueror does *not*. Same thing for Ctrl+W. It closes the
window in NN, Mozilla, IE, Opera, but not in Konqueror. This is
*inconsistent*.
Luckily, one can define alternate shortcuts, that's what I did for Reload, and
therefore I never complained. However, this won't work for Ctrl+W as it needs
more intelligence than the shortcut handling is able to provide.
Note that I'm not insisting that this behaviour is the default for Konqueror,
but having this intelligence removed makes it impossible to restore browser
interoperability.
And now the inevitable: Please make it configurable.
