* We should remove the new menu in this case... makes no sense (protocol doesn't support put/copy)
* Cut shouldn't be there (protocol doesn't support del)
* Preview in khtml shouldn't be there (forgot to check for current part !) :)
* Add whatever you want, it's not that big ;-) (Reload and reload frame especially)
* We could add stop and/or view source, like Netscape.
* Those two giants in the browser world :) feature "create shortcut" which
creates a link on the desktop. Sounds like something we should do ?

I'll have a look at what among this is feasible whenever I find some time :)

Dunno, but see his post on kde-cvs about KDE 2.1 / 3.0 ;-)
