Nigel are you sure we do ? I don't remember coding anything for that
purpose ?

I don't think there is any ordering relation between engines for
epiphany, they are just dumped in a XML file..

A for firefox it's approximately the same..

If it isn' the case could you point me to the code that does that ?

In any case i think we can safely put no nesting for engines..
