I fired up AbiWord, typed a little text, and selected Web -> Preview
Web Page. Much to my surprise, the qt, kde, and crypto lockers were
attached, and abiword tried somewhat unsuccessfully to fire up
konqueror.
There are several things wrong here:
* AbiWord is a GNOME program. It should use gnome-moz-remote.
(Certainly, any program installed on Athena should not default to
using konqueror.)
* Hypothetically speaking, if it were right to fire up konqueror,
there is probably be no need to use the qt locker on Linux, since
qt is part of the release.
* In the same hypothetical land, the maintainer of the kde locker
says that the kde locker is horribly unmaintained and broken, and
nothing should be using it. (Which means there's no good way to
run konqueror on Athena right now.)
