Indeed, I had to phrase it like this for some:

of the browsers available in fedora, which one is least bad?

Personally, I think it semi-important to ship the most reliable browser 
available.  I'm not spending a lot of time on this however.  If this last 
effort fails, I'll drop it.

Otherwise, feel free to suggest ways of making fedora or the kde spin 
better.  I'd like to hear about these bigger fish of yours. Preferably 
things that are as specific and as achievalble as possible  :)
