Please restore the ability of hitting Key_Backspace to PageUp
when viewing html. It makes Konq more friendly to those coming
from Navigator.  This feature was dropped from Konqueror in 
April of 2000.  From the CVS log notes, there were bugs in the keyboard shortcut system at that time.  I've used this patch since
3.0rc2 with no trouble:

I can confirm that the key does not currently have that functionality.

Dear user,

KHTML (and KJS) was a long time more or less unmaintained and got removed in KF6.

Please migrate to use a QWebEngine based HTML component.

We will do no further fixes or improvements to the KF5 branches of these components beside important security fixes.

For security issues, please see:

https://kde.org/info/security/

Sorry that we did not fix this issue during the life-time of KHTML.

Greetings
Christoph Cullmann
