Summary: webbrowser.py fix for konqueror

Initial Comment:
The 2.1 version of webbrowser.py uses kfmclient, and
opens a new Konqueror window for each 'open' call.

This patched version of webbrowser.py uses the KDE
command line utility 'dcop' to either open a URL in an
existing Konqueror window, or to open a new window.

pydoc is much more useful with this version of
webbrowser.py

Err, the patch isn't here.  Could you please try to attach
the patch to this request, or at least point me to some
reasonable documentation for the dcop program and
Konqueror's control interface?  Mandrake 7.2 does not
include a man page for dcop, and "dcop --help" isn't very
helpful.  I would like to improve the Konqueror support.

Thanks!

Assigned to me since webbrowser.py is my fault.  ;-)
