Yes, sorry that was a mistake.

The idea of a proxy sounds interesting. I was thinking myself along the lines of something like:
1. Konqueror is embedding a certain file type using a certain kpart.
2. The kpart crashes and gets marked as bad (or maybe it's added to a blacklist or something like that)
3. The next time Konqueror comes across something that is embedded using a certain filetype, it takes the next kpart that a user might have installed for this filetype instead.
4. If somehow all the kparts are marked bad after a while, there should be a button or something like that would open the file in an external viewer instead. Since this can never crash Konqueror, in the end all the crashes would be gone.

If bad kparts could be used through some kind of proxy, that would be even better though. Maybe it could also be possible for kparts to mark themselves as 'unstable' so that they are always automaticly proxied? Or the other way around where a kpart needs to be marked as 'stable' first before it is possible to run it without a proxy?
