Thank you for your comments, we'll consider them while porting the
codebase to webkit2.
As you already said webkit1 doesn't have a proper way to get results back
from javascript so we are using an hack:

        self.view.execute_script("oldtitle=document.title;document.title=document.getElementById('gpx').innerHTML")
        gpxcontent = unicode(self.view.get_main_frame().get_title())
        self.view.execute_script('document.title=oldtitle;')

We hoped to avoid this and use something nicer.
Is this still doable? Is there a cleaner way?
