this is actually one of the reasons i'm really unconfortable with konqueror.
this makes the very same application behave in n different ways, not
really good for predictability and coherence.
it is actually a great feature that makes is an advanced tool, but for
a more broad, more marketed application we need exactly something tht
does -not- have a feature like that, something that does one thing,
does it well and does it in a single, predictable way
