Re: webkit in konqueror!

Perhaps it is even an advantage of WebKitQt that it does not use KIO with its excessive reliance on DBus-based IPC. I've got a notion that Konqueror feels exspecially sluggish (in comparison to other browsers) when it has initiated a lot of KIO Slaves.

KIO doesn't use DBus for communications with an I/O slave.

Yes, in this case "socket-based IPC" would be more accurate. Nevertheless, if Konqueror's sluggish behavior on some sites is not caused by the rendering engine but by KIO, the KDE bindings of WebKit you are proposing (as opposed to pure Qt bindings in QtWebKit) would not be of much help.
