I suspect Maciej's point is more about having DumpRenderTree use public rather than private interfaces so that it's easier for JavaScriptCore to change its private interfaces. Have you looked at adding a V8 backend to the code generator that WebKitTestRunner is using currently? My guess is that it will be much simpler than CodeGeneratorV8.pm because WebKitTestRunner doesn't have deal with all the exciting variety was have in the web platform. http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Tools/WebKitTestRunner/InjectedBundle/Bindings/CodeGeneratorTestRunner.pmhasn't changed in 17 months, so I wouldn't expect an ongoing maintenance issue.
