I think it has more to do with Konqueror development than it does websites 
'mangling' things. I went to mcdonalds.com for a homework assignment and not 
only did konqueror render things really badly, but it crashed and burned 
pretty hard too. I looked at the page source and it really didn't seem to 
have anything tricky or sneaky in there - no plugins were required or 
anything like that either. 

I think we just have to keep in mind is that KDE, Konqueror, and all of these 
applications that we(at least I) take for granted are under construction, 
even as we use 'stable' versions of them. Oftentimes I find it incredibly 
frustrating, but since I didn't really PAY anything for this development to 
be done I guess I can't talk too much either.
