enhancements Apple makes goes into anything else built on webkit and
vice versa.

This might not be the perfect definition, but WebKit is an open
source browser engine which can be used to build applications which
display web content. Safari is built on WebKit and Apple has been
contributing back to the project. I think Adobe Air is also being
built on it. Safari is probably the biggest name on the webkit client
list which adds some confusion as many people think Safari==webkit.
You can read more about it here:

You'll find a link to download the nightly build for OSX and Windows.

The nightly build of WebKit, from which we get Safari has fixed the
bug with selection boxes in web forms. This bug made some web form
controls invisible to VoiceOVer and has been a critical issue for
some time. Those affected by this may wish to download the WebKit
nightly build and try it out.
