that is why I liked SWK approach so much: with the same interfaces, a 
lightweight engine. Almost hot-pluggable :)

Alternatives would be to "port" a lightweight engine and there NetSurf 
or Dillo oro similar, this was discussed an infinite number of times on 
this mailing list, but no real effort in the engine was actually done. 
We had several WebKit attepts  (but as said, not lightweight) including 
Berkelium and CEF stuff (quick wrap). But the only light approach 
attempted is/was SWK. The rest has always been a lot of talk, while we 
need cooding power.
