I have been using Chromium and Firefox regularly (but I didn't try anything else lately). I find the default settings of most software suboptimal, so I care mostly about configuration options. The biggest disadvantage of Chromium to me is, it is not as configurable as Firefox. I have a feeling that the lack of configurability of Chromium makes it orthogonal to the KDE philosophy, e.g. - one cannot move the navigation icons - one cannot add a search bar, or - one cannot even make the tabs go below the address bar (The times we need vertical estate with 800x600 screens is way over) That said I would be happy to try other alternatives, as long as they are configurable.
