Making  qtweb a 'default browser' option is a great idea!  I went through all 
of the options and 'help', to no avail and would change qtweb to my default 
browser in a heartbeat if possible.  I use qtweb a lot more than Forefox, 
Chrome, Comodo Dragon, & Opera, for its compactness, speed, and private 
browsing mode.
Also,  it does not interact well with websites which offer internal searches 
for information or changes with the # of items viewed.  I cannot find an option 
to correct this.

I'd also like this.
There are scripts and programs out there for this, but this functionality 
natively would be better:

etc

The script doesn't work quite as such, since qtweb can't handle long filenames, 
but if '%~s1' is used instead (as it gives SHORT 8.3 filenames) it should work, 
maybe... ;) The small program I mentioned can be also used, but after using it 
one must do a search for 'qtweb' in regedit and replace all instances of '%s' 
with '%~s1', probably. Let's figure this out and make it work.
