Jim, Most of these I can not answer but I can answer the library version question because I asked it prior to the fast track submission. I'll let the project team answer the others and they can correct me if I am wrong. Note, I am not part of this project just know enough about it to answer some of these issues.
To build the project the team uses the JDS build environment which uses a spec file. The spec file usually simply packages what ever is built during the build process. Thus if a component of the project installs into a versioned directory then the packaging will reflect that fact. Most of your questions revolve around why things are installed into a specific versioned directory or file and should now be answered. Furthermore, the project team is simply following what is being done within the community. The community bumped the version of the library from libwebkit-1.0.so.1 to libwebkit-1.0.so.2. Thus the project team followed suite. I had hoped that they would have explained this within the proposal prior to submission because it is a fairly obvious ARC type of question.
