WebKit was forked from KHTML and developed by Apple. Right now there is
a project, called Project Unity, aimed at merging both codebases back.
But I am afraid that particular project is stalled right now. What I can
say is that Konqueror *can* use WebKit instead of KHTML as its rendering
engine (in fact, once upon a time it could also use Gecko).

There's Midori, but it's still in heavy development. Then there will be,
*someday*, perhaps, Google Chrome.
