The settings API in WebKit-GTK+ seems to be unsuitable for this, since the path
is (as far as I can tell from the code) expected to be a global. There isn't a
global version of the settings API (that I know of) but looks like this is at
least one instance where we would need one.

One improvement over the current one might be to use g_get_prgname() instead of
hard-coded "webkit" in order to not clash between eg. a browser and some other
application using WebKit. It's already used in the UA string generation for
example, which btw is another candidate for global setting (though maybe that
would have use-cases for per-view configuration). Third one I can think of is
some cache settings.

I'll refresh the patch to be applyable and move it to webkitprivate.h (there
seems to be some other API which is under discussion too), but just to allow
people to easily import it if they need the functionality, not for inclusion.
