[webkit-dev] Re: Some basic problems during linux port

[André-John Mas]

IMHO, this certainly sounds like an idea, since Javascript is not  
really necessary for
solutions which are just looking for a rendering solution.

In many ways since Javascript is refered by a mime-type ( text/ 
javascript ) and URL
( javascript: ), it can be seens as an extension, and therefore not a  
necessary
dependency, even if it is a most commonly used dependency. Maybe a  
notion a 'plugin'
that is actually specified iat compile time, rather than runtime.  
Then when we compile
we can simply surround it with an #IFDEF that can ommit the  
dependency, if needed.

Note: I have not looked at the source, so I may be suggesting some  
things that are
already there.
