QWebFrame::hitTestContent() uses a QPoint which is appropriate for mouse usage. For touch-based implementation of the view, a similar function is needed to get all the widgets inside a rect. QTouchEvent return a list of TouchPoints. Those TouchPoints have the function TouchPoint::rect() to get the rect corresponding to the area taken by the finger. It is useful to use that rect to find a link, or a node that can deal with the click. The function could be something like QList<QWebElement> elementsForRect(QRectF).

Sounds like a good idea, though we should think a bit more about the API. Is this needed for 4.6?

This could be for Qt 4.7. There is a few functions we could add in order to improve the handling of QTouchEvent. It is too late to add this in 4.6.

This is no longer the plans. Sampling over the rect should do the trick.
