Firefox is GTK based which means it integrates into the GNOME/other
GTK based environments nicely. It does not integrate nicely with Qt
based desktops such as KDE, however.

This hack makes Firefox use Qt based components rather than GTK for
things like buttons, dialogs, etc, so that it is much more integrated
into KDE. Saving a page, for example, brings up the usual KDE file
manager.
