Indeed! Having a Windows port that uses WebKit2^H would indeed be a big help
in bringing modern WebKitGTK+ versions to Windows.

Apart from the applications that Michael mentions, I can also think about the
help browser in The GIMP, Pidgin [1], and also any C# application which uses
GTK+/WebKit-Sharp or Mono.WebBrowser.
