If you mean Caret Mode II vpl is currently based upon, it'll have to go for 
KDE4. I (or somebody else if he's faster ;-) ) will merge the designmode 
implementation from WebCore 415 into khtml as basically done in the 
designmode_branch.

designmode is not extensible from the outside yet, so we'll have to see what 
hooks are needed in the future. But most important, it should be merged at 
least.

With KDOM using Quanta's parser and creating DOM nodes with Quanta-specific 
information (yet still compatible to khtml's DOM nodes), designmode won't be 
affected and can serve as a replacement for the vpl editing code you now 
have.
