If I remember correctly, the WebKit code under QWebSettings::iconForURL() is asynchronous, and we present it as a synchronous API which fails when the data is not available.

I think the only way to get the icon systematically is to wait for the signal QWebFrame::iconChanged().

We should find a way to improve this or change the documentation. Devs are reporting problems regularily about QWebSettings::iconForUrl().
