* pywebkitgtk is (was?) a python binding to webkitgtk that i think uses
pygtk2
* pythonwebkit is webkitgtk + luke's patches for direct python bindings
* giwebkit is `pyjs/runners/giwebkit.py` (a dynamic binding to a
GI-enabled webkitgtk build)
...`giwebkit` is just the name i gave it, but it should work out-of-the box
with any recent (last 2 yrs or so) webkitgtk build so long as it was built
with `--enable-introspection`
the missing piece (addEventListener) is used pretty early so it might fail
to boot, but it should be pretty easy to temporarily fake it.
from python you must be able to do this:
from gi.repository import WebKit
you need [upstream!] GTK3 and webkitgtk (libwebkitgtk-3.0.so.*) to make it
work.
