I have no experience with this myself, but you can get to the
underlying C GTK+ widgets via the gobj() member function. So if there
is no wrapper for gtkhtml, you simple use the C API and call gobj() on
your gtkmm container when you need to put the HTML widget inside it.

Callback functions for the HTML widget will probably be a bit of a
headache because you have to use the C API for those, too, but it can
be done...
