Bug Description

After I compiled okularplugin (an okular plugin for firefox that allows text search in pdf files. https://github.com/jeremysanders/okularplugin#readme) and copied libokularplugin.so to $HOME/.mozilla/plugins, rekonq crashed whenever I tried to open a pdf file. Somehow rekonq is aware of the firefox plugins and doesn't like this one. This in my opinion should not happen, what does rekonq have to do with firefox plugins at all?

I use the okularplugin because it is the only way I know to open and search text in pdf files within firefox (by the way, as far as I know search text in pdf files is not supported in rekonq right now either, that's why I use firefox and this plugin).
