Personally it seems completely unituitive that middle clicking a page should 
open the page that is held in the clipboard. I can only see this confusing 
new users and not really being much of a usability enhancement. It is hardly 
a journey to move up to the location bar, click the clear button and then 
middle click and it is certainly more intuitive.

My vote would be to leave the functionality, increase the option bloat of 
kcontrol/konqueror preferences and disable "middle clicks opens clipbaord 
contents" by default.
