You say "it's not a fragment" and then your URL uses a fragment:

So I'm assuming you're misusing the term and that you did want a fragment.

It's possible. I don't know anything about webviews and how they process URLs. 
My original statement is correct (the parser is wrong), but it just happens 
it's not your code, it's QWebView.

Unfortunately, if it's buggy, it will remain buggy, no fix.
