Seems like I misunderstood the concept. I assumed that the shared process model means that there could be multiply UI process instances that uses the same web process, virtually when the second MiniBrowser is launched it connects to the existing web process. By taking a deeper look into the WebContext and WebProcessProxy classes, I have realized that the shared process model is about using one web process for multiply views (what is cool) and not for multiply processes (what would be more cool from my point of view :) ). What do you think about my idea? Primarily on embedded devices it would be great to use the web engine as a server process because it could save a lot of memory. I think the current design is not too far for supporting that. Mainly we should find a correct way of connecting the new UI process to the existing web process, and the Connection should be per page instead of per process (or we should rework the WebProcess to not be a singleton?).
