From my point of view integration with kwallet is not something I
actually want, a browser that works is. This is why I'm happily using
Firefox on KDE. I was *delighted* to find kwallet has integrated
itself into git. Ah, wait, I mean, resigned. *resigned* to find
kwallet has integrated itself into git.
For years, without any deep investigation of the philosophy, I've used
KDE, Firefox and Thunderbird, with Konqueror as file manager and viewer.
It WFM; I think I would prefer to be able to restrict Konq to offline
use, to avoid some confusion, but haven't found a way to do that.
