makes sense, though i wonder if there isn't a way to get the needed update 
area from webkit and only update those areas.

indeed, QWebPage has the following signal:

void repaintRequested ( const QRect & dirtyRect )

does conneting that signal to a slot that then calls update(dirtyRect) on the 
Plasma::WebContent object work even better?
