In theory.  In practise, I've already reported a bug in that the user agent 
is not "sticking" - ie, you set it and it forgets it.

Also, some sites want more than just the user agent.  For example, 
espn.go.com will ignore the user agent and uses the browser identity, and to 
helll with the standards.  So, you'll never have Konqueror work properly with 
this site, no matter how hard you try unless you modify the Konqueror source.

That said, Opera does lie and identify itself as IE or Netscape and it does 
display espn properly. although I haven't been able to make it happy with 
fonts yet.
