The Epiphany team explains its decision to change in this post:
  http://blogs.gnome.org/epiphany/2008/04/01/the-future-of-epiphany/

I'll be speaking for other projects and they will hopefully
correct me where I am wrong.  Here is my perspective: for other
parts in the desktop, a blessed WebKit is seen as an opportunity
for new features (Empathy and its Adium-theme branch), for much
improved standards compliance/support (Evolution and switching off
gtkhtml), or simpler code (switching off GtkMozEmbed), or a mix of
those.


Cheers,
        Frederic
