You tould me to use render instead of print. However I fail to see how
this would work. Render does not render under print-media-type (show
stopper). And also I would have to do the cutting into pages my self,
there is no way I could ever get this to support
'page-break-inside:avoid'. Even the render tree is not exposed, and
thus the is no way for me to know if I am cutting a text string in
half..

It seems to me that this is not something obscure than only I need..
Anyone implementing a browser on top of qtwebkit (arora?), would
probably want to add some kind of header and footer to the printed
document, with page: number, date and so on.  I do not see anyway that
this is currently possible..

As you (and everyone else I have talked with) seems to think that the
patch (given I fixed all the little faults) still is the wrong way to
add this to the API. My question is then what is the right way?
