There used to be attempts to build Gecko on top of QT. Whatever happened I don't know.
That branch still exists and AFAIK also receives occasional fixes. The Qt port however does not mean any integration into Qt environments. It just uses the Cairo-Qt wrapper to draw everything (buggy). I had a look at FF-Qt a few months ago: https://kamikazow.wordpress.com/2011/01/16/quick-look-at-firefox-4-for-qt4/
I suspect Mozilla's addon system may be a big obstacle to KDE integration.
That's actually not an obstacle at all -- at least when using the official addon API (aka. JetPack). It is perfectly possible to implement that API on top of WebKit browsersne. because with that API addons are written using HTML(5), CSS, and JavaScript. Rekonq has already rudimentary support for Chrome extensions which follow a very similar design route (that support is not enabled by default AFAIK). I hadn't realized it could use Chrome extensions. The two things that keep me from using it regularly is though it is fast, it is slower than Chrome or Firefox and it can't use the Google Talk plugin which serves as my primary telephone. I wonder if it has an API that would make it possible to interface a sort of caller program with. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
