The cache in khtmlw is for icons only. It is intended that this cache
is never deleted/cleared. A normal web-page does not load any icons and
does not use this cache at all.

I have heared several reports about growing _X-servers_ though so I
guess there is something wrong somwhere but I doubt that it is the
ImageCache in khtmlw. Feel free to convince me.
