Subject: Bug#41988: Internet Keywords Configuration Suggestion

Package: konqueror
Version: KDE 3.0.0
Severity: wishlist
Installed from: RedHat RPMs
Compiler: Not Specified
OS: Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified
The Internet Keywords feature on the Konqueror web browser is an \
excellent feature; my ability to drop a query to a search engine from the \
Location bar is the reason why I started using Konqueror instead of \
Netscape in the first place. However, the Internet Keywords part of the \
feature (i.e. typing "google" in the Location bar rather than \
"http://www.google.com" and being taken directly to google.com) seems to \
respond arbitrarily at best. I cannot ever guess when this feature will \
take me to a completed search page or some web site that I have never even \
heard of, simply because the web site shares the same name as my query. My \
suggestion would be to make the option available to leave the search engine \
portion of this feature available while disabling the Internet Keywords \
feature in Konqueror Configuration (right now both features are controlled \
by one check box). Another excellent feature would be the ability to \
define or remove Internet Keywords of your own. As it stands, I can find \
no discernable list of Internet Keywords anywhere in the Konqueror \
configuration. I have no way of knowing what will even bring up the search \
engine or what will automatically redirect me to a web \
site.
Anyway, I hope that somehow you can make this useful. I really \
appreciate your products; keep up the good work, etc., etc...
Thanks for your time --
Jason
