For now, it won't be able to access the DOM tree, but that's currently a
limitation of WebKitGTK+. I was hoping we would have some way of at
least using the javascript objects through seed by sharing the global
context with the one in the WebView, but it seems to be harder than we
first thought.

We can probably think of a way of making that available through some
clever use of JavaScriptCore's C API, though. Notice that me and Xan are
going to try and push DOM access API for this cycle still, though.

See you,
