Week 07 updates on QtWebKit stable branches (v2.1 and v2.1.x)

There was some unexpected activity in the qtwebkit-2.1 branch this week (so much for calling it a "Release Candidate") due to more Q&A efforts on the Symbian platforms targeted by this release. There are bugs still blocking 2.1, so this is not a release-candidate anymore.


The 2.1.x branch had its fair amount of commits and a fix from last week was reverted due to a regression (bug #52449, commit 4892409). Hopefully we'll be able to declare it a RC in a few weeks.
