The event context info gathering that Epiphany does in those gtkmozembed
DOM signals that it reemits is rather heavy, I'd prefer not to add more
handlers (esp. often triggered ones). Could you just attach to the
gtkmozembed ones and use its gpointer dom_event to just check for the
info you really need there? That should be faster.
