[webkit-dev] help with porting

[Luka Napotnik]

Thanks for this information, Holger.

I think fonts shouldn't be such a problem since cairo supports font
rendering. For cursor and drag&drop I plan to simply put some dummy
callbacks for those operations. What do you mean with "No API (WebKit)"?

Greets,
Luka
