           Summary: security: when leaving https change the location editbox
                    appearance
           Product: konqueror
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: bluedzins wp pl


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Go to some secure website (https) and then change it to http (another page).

Let's say (imaginary) addresses
https://secure.com --> http://notsecure.com

While changing the webpage the dialog about leaving secure area is displayed, but in the same time (!) the address is already changed. Which means:
http://notsecure.com
is shown on yellow background with "lock"!

I think it is very misguiding.
