LGPLed code is allowed to be linked against non GPL-compatible code. GPLed 
code may only be linked against GPL-compatible code.

Usually one uses GPL for applications, and LGPL for libraries.

All libraries in KDE are licensed under the LGPL to allow them being linked 
against proprietary, commercial software (closed source). As kio_mhtml serves 
more as a library than a stand-alone applications, LGPL would fit better.

This is only a suggestion. Solely you as the original and sole copyright 
holder can perform such a change.

Find more information under [1, 2, 3]. Concerning [3], LGPL is the better 
choice for KDE libraries as otherwise proprietary vendors would simply go for 
gnome, motif, etc.

Yes, a simple search and replace over all files should do.

I didn't encounter it yet in my superficial tests.

So did I :-)

Then this means ýou have to make up your own. You could simply convert some 
mhtml-x.mhtmls from dsv.su.se.
