I believe users of WebKit can be reasonably split into two groups: 1) desktop 2) server In case of desktop, I can assure you that it's genuinely hard to use distro like Debian stable or CentOS on desktop without any additional repos. Backports repo comes as a first candidate in case of Debian. In case of server, indeed people won't change defaults until they very much need it. However, WebKit is not a typical server software, so I think it would be reasonable to assume server users know what they are doing. > Reasonable > users assume they are receiving security updates by default. > > This seems to have diverged from the topic at hand, though.
