You just install WebKit by dropping it on your applications folder,
Safari does not change but you'll have a "new app" called WebKit in
your apps folder.
Yes nightlies can be unstable... but it should not affect your regular
Safari operations
If you are going to take the time to identify WebKit vs "other issues"
then make sure you file any WebKit bugs to WebKit Bugzilla (distinct
from bugs to Apple for shipping products) is a great way to get things
fixed that may not be covered quite as well as they should be.

How do you switch between the current release of WebKit provided by
Apple and the nightly build you may have installed? I want to see if
the fix for my nasty problem with list boxes on Safari gets fixed in
newer versions. That, and I'd like to report the problem to the
WebKit community because the bug is likely within WebKit and not
Voiceover. Remember Safari 3 on Tiger breaking a ton of Voiceover
usability? That was WebKit.

I don't recommend this step to anyone but the most enthusiastic
developer-types who don't mind taking some risks. Nightly builds
might
introduce some bugs that may or may not be fixed for the following
nightly
build. If you want to be adventurous, I suggest you can try betas.

WebKit is related... Safari Mail, Dashboard etc rely on WebKit so
that's why a reboot was required...
You may find it worthwhile to run a nightlybuild-it frequently has
some fixes that make some sites actually usable. You can run both
WebKit nightly and Safari on the same machine.
The nightly build can be obtained from here http://webkit.org/

What problem was this? It's just that Mail seems to be responding
slower now that I've installed the update - are SAfari and mail
related?
Thanks
Take care
