  How to reproduce the problem:
  
  Set webkit as the default, then open konqueror and go to:
  http://whatsmyuseragent.com
  
  It show this string:
  Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.2; Linux) KHTML/4.2.2 (like Gecko)
  
  But I know I'm using webkit: different font size and different
  rendering...
  
  So, at the first run webkit is identified as KHTML...
  
  Refresh as no effect, it come again with KHTML.
  
  Now, if I switch view mode to KHTML it show.... KHTML, but this time is for real, the page is visibly different...
  Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.2; Linux) KHTML/4.2.2 (like Gecko)
  
  Now, I switch back to webkit and:
  Mozilla/5.0 (Konqueror/4.2; Linux) AppleWebKit/527+ (KHTML, like Gecko, Safari/419.3)
  
  It seems it change the user agent only after a switch, but not at the
  first load of konqueror...
  
  It is a serious bug for some one that need to test a website.
- 
- I assign this bug to konqueror, but it may be related to webkitkde
- too...
