ii  konqueror-kde4                                   4:4.0.1-0ubuntu2           
         KDE 4's advanced file manager, web browser and document viewer

1) Enter a non-ASCII URL like <http://www.münster.de/> to see that IDN work.
2) Enable Google as the default search engine (problem also occurs with 
Wikipedia as the search engine, for example).
3) Enter a search term such as "Münster" into the address bar and hit enter.
4) See that the Google page omits the "ü" umlaut because it seems to be encoded 
incorrectly.

Just entering "Münster" in the address bar when using Google as the
default search engine opens
<http://www.google.de/search?q=M%EF%BF%BDnster&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8> in my
case. If I enter "Münster" in Google's search form,
<http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&q=M%C3%BCnster&btnG=Suche&meta=> is
opened. Note how the umlaut is encoded differently.
