IMO it should actually be reported against the application, which in this case 
is Konqueror. The reason is because every time you type an HTTP address into 
Konqueror's location bar, it always wants to identify the resource type of the 
entered url so that it can embed or use the right KPart. Unfortunately the 
only way it can do that is to go ahead and request the resource in order to  
obtain its mime-type, e.g. text/html. That particular act is the cause of this 
problem, which makes the fix a little more complicated... Anyways, I personally 
think the bug should be  reported against Konqueror and handled appropriately 
from there. It is also something that is already on my TODO list, but if and 
when I will get to it is up in the air...
