But isn't FOSS all about choice?

If he wants to run Konqueror, Lynx, or any other browser that's his
choice. If he doesn't like the way that it works he's free to choose
another or choose to to modify them.

If we don't respect people's choices we run the risk of ending up with
something like http://www.msfirefox.com/ or
http://www.msfirefox.com/images/stories/msff07box.jpg

Personally I can't stand konqueror's browser, but that's my choice.
