More fairly, Gmail does not support Konqueror. The Gmail team took the
time to make sure it worked in IE, Firefox and Safari, and "blocked'
everything else. If they could get IE to work, they very well should
be able to get Konqueror to work. It does technically work, I just
tried it on my outdated version of Konqueror, please see this :

Fair enough. For me, rendering of sites in general is more important
than Gmail, plus I kinda like the simple Gmail view sometimes

Well I use NoScript in Firefox, so being Javascript heavy is the
website's problem.. I likely won't be visiting it too much.

I think it would be more fair to say that it will favour websites that
don't use Javascript _heavily_. Because as I have said, when I do
browse, I use it, and it is faster... I doubt that I only browse non
javascript using websites.
