As discussed in the #mythtv channel, using Qt 4.4 would be a great benefit
here due to including WebKit directly in QT. The best solution all around
for everyone would probably just say that mythbrowser is going to be a
feature dependent on Qt 4.4 since users will have a solid and well tested
mythbrowser implementation and all the work to port to KHTML 4.x will be
better spent on other parts of MythTV.
