We can surely do this thing. The function to override is just one, so it's a 
basic trick and let it work for all KDE4.x.
But I think the log-in failure question is a little more "complex" and invest 
our new CookieJar AND NetworkAccessManager. We have to handle them together!

Anyway, we also need something with KDE 4.2.x installed testing it before 
merging.

I'm going to provide a RekonqAccessManager branch to work on this topic.
