Package:           konqueror
Version:           unknown (using KDE 2.1.2 )
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Debian Package 4:2.1.2-3 (testing/unstable)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20010522 (Debian prerelease)
OS:                Linux 2.4.4 i686
OS/Compiler notes: 

The default response timeout values are set too low, it is common for a server to take more than 60 seconds to respond.  A common example is credit card clearing after making a purchase online, and this is a particularly bad time to have the browser cancel your request because when if resubmit it you might get charged again.  

I think this timeout "feature" is a bad idea altogether, but at least the defaults could be set high enough.
