Add Qupzilla to the working Webkit browsers. As of present, there are far 
more Webkit engined browsers than there are Gecko engined browsers. Webkit 
(from KDE's KHTML) browsers include Safari, Google Chrome, Chromium 
(development project for Chrome), latest versions of Opera (Now Chromium 
based, no longer uses Presto engine), Qupzilla, Rekonq, and Konqueror 
although Konqueror seems to be going away and not ported to Frameworks 5.

While here, I should mention that Opera has an addon that allows it to 
take Google Chrome extensions, some of which are useful. I also recommend 
the Tabs To The Front extension for Chrome, Chromium, or Opera. I hate 
backgrounded tabs that just opened.
