Can't make Konqueror as Opera ?

Sun Sep 02, 2012 1:52 pm
Hello, everybody.
I like Opera. However, Konqueror is the default web browser of KDE. Can Konqueror do the following things ?
1. mouse gesture browsing.
2. password store.
3. drag and drop.
4. user CSS.
5. addon to remove ads, like Noads in opera extension.
6. addon to display next page automatically, like AutoPager in opera extension.
7. addon to download online video, like video download helper in firefox addon.
8. addon to block content, like block content in opera default.
9. addon to open link background with no use of the middle key of mouse, like long-click in opera extension.
10. addon to remove right menu restrictions on some pages, like right menu enable in opera extension.

If no body can't make konqueror do them, how can Konqueror conquer the web?

2) Password storage is already implemented courtesy of KWallet.
3) Drag and Drop should function, at least with text.
4) User defined CSS is already supported, see Konqueror > Settings > Configure Konqueror > Web Browsing > Appearance > Stylesheets.
5) Konqueror already has limited ad-blocking support.
6) While addons are supported in Konqueror, they are limited in their functionality and not well exploited at this time.

Understood.
Thank you.
Hope Konqueror become better!

I think addons should be an important role in web browse. See chrome? It has webkit, and many addons has already produced. But not the same with khtml.

So, my suggestion is: make khtml 'easy' to write addons or drop khtml to take webkit.
