Switching from webkit2gtk 4.0 to 4.1 is important. Fedora has 
[stopped](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Remove_webkit2gtk-4.0_API_Version)
 building the 4.0 API in preparation for their Fedora 40 release in a few 
months.

Debian and Ubuntu are preparing to do the same thing.

Ideally, all the plugins would be ported at the same time.

- markdown (uses webkitgtk 4.0
- webhelper (uses webkitgtk 4.0
- geniuspaste (uses libsoup2)
- updatechecker (uses libsoup2)

However, it is not possible for a process to load both libsoup2 and libsoup3 at 
the same time. I think this could be possible if an app uses plugins. I tested 
this with the markdown plugin (which I switched to use webkitgtk 4.1). With the 
markdown plugin enabled and a Markdown document open, many times (but not every 
time), I was unable to use the _Check for Updates_ button or _Paste It!_ 
without Geany hanging.
