The point is that I don't even register that it is a konqueror window because 
most web site favicon.ico icons at 16x16 pixels look like a blob of HSB 
noise. I associate the nice globe with konqueror, and then read the title to 
see what the window contains. I use this same mental process for every KDE 
application I use, and konqueror doing this in a different way is bad for me.

If using favicon.ico is loved by all, then let's use it everywhere and for 
every application. When I have 6 applications and 30 windows open with 30 
different taskbar icons, I'll go running and screaming to another desktop, 
that's for sure! 

All I'm asking for is an option to turn this feature off, because it doesn't 
help me at all :)

Sean.
