------- Additional Comments from Adam Barth <abarth at webkit.org>
I hesitate to get involved because people have strong feels here, but this
patch at the wrong layer.  If an embedder of gtk-webkit wants to spoof someone
else's UA string, that seems like something that should be handled by the
embedder.  For example, when Chrome has spoofed a UA in the past, it's beed
done at the embedding layer.

We'd probably all be better off if everyone set their UA string to
"WebBrowser", but I don't think we're going to get there from here.  Why not
spoof Safari's UA string to every site?  That's likely to give you the best
compatibility, in all honesty.	Sorry.	:(
