I'm not 100% sure of this but I think we should just implement a "special 
window" for web apps.
This "special window" should have all the features Lionel said (but, being a 
window, integration with kwin or any other win manager is just done...).
Having it, we need just another one thing: understand what links go to web 
apps. if you are a web app and your link go to a web app, you open there, 
otherwise you emit a loadUrl(url, Rekonq::Type*) and it's done.

To understand if a link is a web app, we can create a db, ask user (with a 
spin in the tab menu) or check for metatags.

Keep it Simple :D


* adding Rekonq::WebApp to our types :)
