I have not looked at it very closely but it would seem that the editor api
is embed friendly. With not too much modifications it could be possible
to extend gtkmozembed to support editing. Basically a switch to put the
widget in edit mode and a few functions to execute commands (string identifier
+ parameters).

Could you make a list of functionalities you would need for Yelp and DevHelp
? I think blizzard is favourable to extend gtkmozembed api now. Probably
it would be better to have them there instead of creating yet another wrapper.
Anyway one way or another if there is need of a more powerfull gecko widget
I'd be happy to help with it.
