[webkit-qt] Custom JavaScript parser

[henry.haverinen at nokia.com]

Hi Zoltan,

Testing the parser on real sites and maintaining the code are valid points, and it'd be great
to share this work with the whole project... 

So I'm not sure if we really would have  the QA and maintenance capacity to take this solution to QtWebKit 
before it's ready to be landed to the trunk. Are you planning to continue working with Oliver on a solution
that would be both fast and maintainable?

Regards,
Henry
