This doesn't sound good for me.

It should be something like this:

  navigator.vendor = Apple
  navigator.product = Safari/KHTML
  navigator.platform = MacPPC

or platfrom can better defined as:
  navigator.platform = MacOS X PowerPC

BTW: do we have common Safari/Konqueror mailing list where we can discuss 
questions like this?
While I don't have Mac, I am certanly interested in standartization.
We should "make it happen", at least for userAgent strings ;-)
