Unfortunately the answer here is no. Not for the foreseeable future. The
QtWebKit2 API is completely different than the QtWebKit1 API since it is based
on WebKit2 and its split process model. Currently the API provided by QtWebKit2
does not allow it to be used as a browser engine rendering engine and is almost
entirely designed to be used from QML.

It won't do any good for a couple of reasons. First it is obviously not a bug
in kdewebkit itself. kdewebkit is nothing more than a thin wrapper around
QtWebKit1 to allow use of KDE's frameworks such as KIO and KWallet. Second that
bug is likely already fixed in upstream version of QtWebKit as well.
Unfortunately, those changes did not make it into the version branched, tested
and included with Qt 4.8. However, if you still want to report the bug, I
suggest you follow the guides outlined at
http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs and report the bug there.
