Yes, but the web-viewer could suck less, internally. GTK & glib
being rather obvious examples. With that in mind I thought I'd take
another look at webkitnix today, and found that they're not planning
to maintain it anymore[0]. Which sucks.
But frankly given the organisations who control the W3C I think the
web through "fully featured" rendering engines is fundamentally doomed
anyway. See [1], for a recent example. Well, doomed as far as being
a platform that's worth spending time on.
