attempt at resetting location bar on escape press

Version:           SVN (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

With recent changes to protect user given input, it has become hard-impossible to restore the view's original URL. Usually (i.e. f.e. IE, since a decade or more) pressing ESCape does that. I've tried to implement this but patch fell short from working. Somehow doesn't work with kparts and switching to other tabs between typing and pressing escape shows unwanted side effects.

Reproducible: Always




OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.37-rc2-git2

Konqueror location bar: reset url to current view's actual url on ESC

Simplest possible approach: put current view's url in address bar
 - even for corner cases like about:konqueror or about:blank
