I have taken a look at WebView, gtk-webcore, WebKitQt and my chosen rolemodel
is the Qt API. Both 'languages' have the concept of signal and slots/closures
which feel more native than delegates.

IMHO we should have a Page/Frame split as well, signals and signals with
default handlers to implement policy and notification. None of the internal
WebCore names should be in the header files, this can be achieved by using
GObject and PIMPL paradigma. The secret  would still be shared among several
classes which should be okay.
For the API I'm going to follow the Qt route and will search for some test
rabbits.
