I'm looking at your mockup and considering your idea..

The table layout was a first (the simples) try for the HomePage.
In the HomePageEmbedded we are using a plain css style.

What I like of html/css is the fact that the render engine thinks about "quite 
all". And it's simple providing some new blocks..

Obviously using plasma containment, we can easily reuse code (news and rss, 
your mockup show the right targets..).
But we should provide some new rekonq-plasmoids to let see webpreviews and so 
on..

uhm.. not sure..

Can you provide here some sort of "example-code" (some sites or dontknow what) 
to try this kind of approach?
