If Qt is the way to support Windows, it would need some work to make it easy to 
integrate into an existing non-Qt Windows application. From memory, that isn't 
the easiest thing in the world to do.

Considering Safari 6 is Mac only, and the departing of Chromium (the defacto

The webkit.org<http://webkit.org> instructions still reference Visual Studio 
2005 for instance

We should update that!

Any interest in making it a first class citizen again so that Windows users can 
potentially have a official WebKit(2) browser and application developers have a 
more or less officially supported library that isn't Chromium based?

There is one: Qt.
The Qt port uses WebKit2 and supports Windows :)

I would prefer seeing more work on existing stable ports to make them better 
rather than spreading the effort on a new port.

Cheers,
Benjamin
