As QTWebengine is Google Chrome, I do not want it installed on my computer. Please add a USEFLAG that allows the user to disable this package. It affects many dependencies, some of which the user should be able to build without qtwebengine. Some of the packages capable of being built without webengine: kde-apps/akonadi-contacts kde-apps/konqueror dev-qt/qt-creator dev-python/PyQt5 Thank you.
PyQt5, qt-creator have qtwebengine USE to drop qtwebengine dep. akonadi-contacts doesn't provide optional qtwebengine support as per upstream: https://github.com/KDE/akonadi-contacts/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L39 konqueror also doesn't provide optional qtwebengine support as per upstream: https://github.com/KDE/konqueror/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L24 But maybe KDE team will be willing to patch konqueror and make webengine optional.
If you remove qtwebengine from konqueror, it is completely useless. KDE PIM >=16.08, of which akonadi-contacts is part of, depends on qtwebengine all over the place. Where possible, there is a use flag already, as mentioned by Coacher. We can't fix upstream.

Feel free to send patches upstream.
