I think there is a misunderstanding. The QtWebKit API for history is very basic
and only has a "bool contains(const QUrl&)" method. This used to match
perfectly with the internal model of WebCore. The internal model was changed to
the better (PageGroup and pushing the visited links for a group into WebCore
and hashing them) and the semantic of the QtWebKit API does not work anymore.
For QtWebKit compability reasons it is required to have a fallback (which is
#ifdef'ed and not used for the other platforms).

So the QtWebKit API broke due changes in WebCore and we need a way to have the
API to work as in Qt4.4.
