They are already working on this, it's called the "Gecko Runtime Environment" ( formerly the "Mozilla Runtime Environment", but they split it out into the "GRE" and the "XRE", or "Xul Runtime Environment", for Gecko embedders who don't need XUL ). The GRE should supply everything needed to embed Gecko, and it'll be shared by the Mozilla browser and whoever else wants to use it.
