ASAP, please!

I think konqueror lacks of such abilities, and they are practically
essential nowadays, but apart from that..., other capabilities are fine
IMHO (speed, stability, ...). Ops! In addition, I realize now that
sometimes konqueror renders (shows) some webpages badly (you know,
things placed in the frame where they shouldn't, etc.)
