Hi Christian,
is there support for Kerberos and GSSAPI in QtWebEngine/QupZilla? It
does not pick up Chromium settings.

It's not as big showstopper for me as before as now I use two browsers
in parallel - one for day job, one for my personal use. Having two
Google accounts (job/personal) in one browser is... But I'd like to
replace one of the browser and preferable Firefox - still I can move
Chromium as day job and Qupzilla as personal :).

Thanks
Jaroslav
