Package: emacs25 Version: 25.1+1-3 Severity: wishlist Bug #843462 [1] disabled emacs' xwidgets feature, but shouldn't the same be applied to epiphany in debian stable? And doesn't the xwidget feature enable more than just embedding webkit?
Since debian testing should receive all the updates (including the security ones), maybe it would make sense to have a build without xwidgets/webkit on all releases, and another one with xwidgets/webkit only on testing/sid/experimental: https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2016/02/01/on-webkit-security-updates/ (see the "Debian" section) Sorry for my ignorance if having security updates for the browser-related part is not the only reason for disabling xwidgets.
