Techinaly there is no "internal" webbrowser, all html pages are generated from a seperate process to the viewer using the webkit rendering engine and passed to the viewer as a texture via a shared memory buffer. Using seperate processes is enough to isolate from GPL issues and other licence issues in other cases so i can't see what the html engine user agent string has to do with the TVP and the unique identifier which is used by LL on the xmlrpc login processin this case either. I often have to change user agent on my browser to fix broken websites, I can't see how this is any different. Plus if this "really" is an issue LL can request that you unfix your code, i believe that was part of the TVP conditions for connecting to SL but again the webbrowser is not specificly connecting to secondlife and its the age old story of anyone who wants to do bad things can and will fake idents regardless, its only leigit viewers that need to fake idents to avoid "broken content" in this case and not allowing a viewer to fake this only hurts and would make a mocery of the entire 3rd party viewer system.
