Ah yes, QDeclarativeWebView uses WebKit1, much easier to change the QNAM 
there. Fun fact: In KMail we also use QWebPage::setQNAM(), probably for the 
exact same usecase as you have in Trojitá :)

With WebKit2, there is no such easy way, and instead of one QNAM per page, 
there is only one global QNAM, which even lives in another process. No free 
lunch.

Thomas
