Doesn't Konq have the 'JavaScript Web Popups Policy' in the settings since 
quite a while too? AFAIK at least since KDE 3.0.

The rest of your wish indeed makes sense under an advanced button, because the 
behaviour you describe is often rather annoying. I personally would make it 
similar to the current popup window code though that besides allow and deny 
there is also 'smart' that only allows it as a result of a mouse click or 
keyboard event, but not at random, leaving more advanced apps intact, but 
killing the ads and other spam.

As for the correctness of the patch, I know too little about the ecma 
bindings, so I leave that for the Konq developers.
