TODO List for QtWebKit

Incoming

uncategorized issues that the developers still need to prioritize.

• We don't have any accessibility support
• QWebFrame should have a function to access the QWebHistory for that frame.
• There should be an QWebIconDatabase class that gives you notifications when the icon has been loaded.
• Autotest Coverage
• header such as "webkitversion.h" that contains the version in a define
• Way to access list of files and progress on downloading them (i.e. be able to make an activity window)
• Ability to pass the handling of listbox/select elements to the application
