Heyho!

This is currently the biggest annoying thing with webkit kpart:

Using web forms, I often end up typing something that makes validation fail, and then using the back button to go back to the form and re-submit with the mistake corrected.

Since webkit kpart (currently) doesn't restore the form contents, this is quite a hassle (and, since I often don't remember to copy typed text to the clipboard before submitting, quite time consuming since I have to type everything again.)

Are there any plans to implement this?

thanks & happy holidays!
