No it's not, and I do change the default from Konqueror.  What I also said
in the previous message was that since Konqueror is the default for the KDE
DE, perhaps it would be better to have a discussion of
changing it (if you are looking for that) upstream.  I don't have any issue
whatsoever with Konqueror being the KDE default; and I'm not wanting,
expecting or asking the KDE defaults to be overridden by the Fedora KDE
support team.  They are fine as they are IMO.  I was simply stating my
opinion on the state of other open source browsers versus Firefox and
Chrome.  They just don't have the bells and whistles.
