Yet they'll be able to enjoy system level code performance and compacity. Another point to note as well is that this leaves a chance to play with the DOM "natively", i.e, without having to wrap the webkit DOM api into GObjects. Gtkmm apps can directly access the DOM by virtue of being C++ apps. Interesting times ahead. Well done. Yay,
