Actually I find this rather odd.  I've seen Havoc on the mailing lists
emphasizing that we should have as little dependence on gnome-libs as
possible.  If it's possible not to use gnome-libs then don't.

In an later message, someone stated that you could inheritance to add the
Gconf features.  I think though your argument has some merit in which why
add extra features for a single app (if that is the goal).

What does the GTK team think?  A lack of a lightweight html widget would
be of some concern for them, yes?

Maybe that will happen!
