For reference : we shortly discussed this with Zayed on IRC.

I'll add some words (expressing my personal stance on this matter), for anyone 
who would be interested by this question from the KHTML standpoint: 
no, basically there is no such thing as a "road map" for the engine, because 
future plans are a constantly moving dialectic process involving many parties 
or factors, among whose:

 .convergence with other engines, (++)
 .current W3C workgroups focus, (+)
 .stability level of specifications, (+++)
 .evolving practices of content writers (from + to +++)

Any feature that is missing and is either seeing wide, stable usage, or has an 
associated specification that has reached the Candidate Recommendation state 
(or equivalent) is implicitely part of our "road map".
This is however not reciprocal, and any developer might have 'pet' projects 
for implementing part of less stable specification or ideas.
We can't communicate on that though..

Germain.
