Well, you can't rely on gtkhtml3.0 either, because it will *not* be shipping
with etch.  If you believe you can't rely on gtkhtml3.6, I guess you will
want to figure out which of the other extant versions you can rely on. 
(gtkhtml3.2 is not going away just yet, though it should also disappear
before etch is released).

I really don't know what you're talking about.  The last upload of
gtkhtml3.6 is four months old and present in testing.  I guess you could be
referring to the various snapshots that were uploaded to experimental, but
why should anything in experimental be indicative?
