just to note that the GTK webkit (eg: used by epiphany) is not to be confused
with qt-webkit - qt-webkit (eg: used by qutebrowser) is the one with security
flaws - the parabola qutebrowser warns the user upon first run

such a warning makes no sense for icecat though - there is a valid use-case for
epiphany, qutebrowser, etc - those are much more lightweight and responsive -
icecat is nearly identical to abrowser and iceweasel, which are well maintained
- icecat v60 has absolutely no value to anyone
