Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.3.0-1
Severity: minor

Konqueror should have a branded UA, just like Mozilla and Galeon
(and hopefully many other) do.

Example user agents:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-AT; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040820 Debian/1.7.2-4
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040820 Galeon/1.3.17 
(Debian package 1.3.17-1)

Please talk to the mozilla folks which type of branding is preferred.
http://www.mozilla.org/build/revised-user-agent-strings.html

I don't think the branding as used by Mozilla Browser is optimal.
I think the debian branding of Galeon is done better.
(Some parsers might interpret the mozilla-browser branding as
"mozilla-based browser named Debian")

I'm not sure if current Konquerors User-Agent is actually
standards-conformant:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.3; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko)

IMHO this should be
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; U; Linux i686; en-US) KHTML/3.3 Konqueror/3.3 (Debian 
package 3.3.0-1)

The "KHTML" part could be shared between Safari and Konqueror to reflect
the rendering engine, like "Gecko" does for mozilla, galeon, epiphany
and firefox.
