Hi!

The idea that we came up with was that we change the name of GtkHTML1 to
EHtml (or what-ever) and hide GtkHTML2. As Havoc stated, neither is part
of Gtk+ and thus prefixing with Gtk is somewhat confusing in both cases.

Anders was on the 'meeting' (which was more-or-less a bunch of us
sitting down on Guadec discussing this issue).

I later learned that Nautilus is currently using GtkHTML2 for displaying
HTML. Is this correct, and if so, it might not be a good idea to 'hide'
it in Yelp.

I would be interested in hearing what the current maintainers/hackers on
GtkHTML1 thinks.
