Good evening,
The one shortfall, currently, of webkit is the lack of support for
ARIA. Hopefully this will come soon, but I can understand if the
webkit developers wait unti the draft becomes a w3c recommendation.

My impression of the whole Mozilla situation is that they're simply
unwilling to work in the context of the Mac/VoiceOver experience,
where regards accessibility. They are firmly planted in the Windows/
Linux mind set, and it's really that simple. It's too bad, too.
Unfortunately, there are plenty of users out there, in the blindness
organizations or elsewhere, who are likewise opposed to change, or
that which varies from their norm.
While it would be nice to have Firefox available on the Mac, I think
Webkit has far outstripped Mozilla in rendering, much in the way
that Mozilla has outstripped Microsoft. I like Webkit, and I'm
happier using it, so can't complain too much.
For web development purposes, it would certainly be more convenient
to have both available on the Mac side, though.
