I sure hope that dependency is something that is likely to change. I
hope someday Galeon will use something like the Gtk+ WebCore libraries
to render HTML. And isn't that already possible? I'm very curious about
how it works... I know some of you have already compiled Galeon with the
WebCore libraries. How usable is Galeon using the new shiny Gtk+
WebCore? Is it light, fast, solid? Is it a feasible solution for the
future? It sure sounds like an interesting marriage...
