Note that WebkitGTK is still broken on i686 (bug#51863). I could take some time out of my weekend to fix the issues I raised w.r.t. that patch or we could apply it as-is (though note that hasty as-is applications have not worked out too well for us in the recent past). I'm not sure whether raingloom is on i686 or x86_64, just wanted to point that out.
