How hard is it to write a new browser using an existing rendering engine? Still really really hard right?
@glaebhoerl @gankro If you want to, go for it! I'd be a bit concerned about security issues but don't let me talk you out of it :)

@pcwalton @Gankro tbh, scenario I'm wary of is after initial enthusiasm I get bogged down by complexity&busywork, get discouraged, & give up -

@pcwalton@glaebhoerl I wonder if it would be possible to take e.g. Qt's WebView (which is embeds webkit) and work backwards? -

@pcwalton actually writing it in Qt is an option, would have to see how limiting QWebView's API is... and I'd like to use Rust... :)
