Konqueror's broken HTML rendering is a known problem but I haven't gotten around to seeing what would be required to replace KHTML with Webkit. That process will be lengthy and won't happen for R14 in any case.
Keep in mind in planning whether to replace or to provide two options as KDE4 does that KHTML is the only rendering engine that completely preserves physical units as physical units for screen display, e.g. pt, mm, cm, in, etc

I didn't know that. Thanks for all the info!
On thinking about this further I wonder how hard it would be to replace our KHTML with KDE's KHTML. I don't want to drag in a bunch of KDE libraries but there was an effort some time ago to make certain core KDE features use less of the non-core KDE libraries.
Does anyone know the status of KHTML in KDE4? Is it just as broken as our version or has it been maintained over time? I was under the impression that KHTML had been largely abandoned but now I'm not sure...
Thanks!
Tim
