the main problem with something lightweight like qupzilla as default
browser is the poor security patch standards that the webkit/chromium
ports (which they rely on) seem to have. Rather than monthly updates
there are very infrequent point releases, they dont tend to keep up with
upstream very well at all.
hopefully as qt5.6 is an LTS release that will change, but it remains to
be seen.
thanks
