I've applied your changes to remove <-konqblock> locally now, and indeed 
KHTML behaves (imho broken) like Mozilla now. contents that was moved to 
front is added to the flow. like for example: 

<BODY>
this is some text
<table border="1">
<tr>
       <a name="apple">not in the TD!</a> 
        <td>foobar</td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

were there sites which required the Mozilla behaviour ? The konqblock was 
exactly introduced to have the IE behaviour, which broke some strange 
websites before (have to dig deep in the commit history to find an example, 
can't remember offhand anymore).
