On the webkit/gtk mailing list, there are a few people who are trying to get it to work on win32. There is some support from the main developers, but it's not great. I picked webkit over gecko because it seemed farther ahead. Gecko may have passed it by now, so after 2.4 is out, I'll look at gecko again.
One feature of a more modern browser engine that interests me is javascript to make the reports/graphs interactive. I'd love to have better drill-down, or the ability to collapse columns, or do horizontal/vertical scrolling with row/column headers that stay in the same place.
