That's the core of the graphics-scraping requirement.  Input to the embedded
widget is another matter.

The mouse and keyboard input events which we need to propagate to the embedded
widget are by no means GTK native events (for example, the mouse co-ordinates
from a canvas inside the 3D world need to come through another input
abstraction and be reverse-projected, ultimately having little resemblance to
the mouse events arriving to the 'real' application window even if the 'real'
application window used GTK events natively, which it doesn't).

So, we really need to be able to inject synthetic mouse and keyboard events
into a given WebKit view.  I don't mind *terribly* much if I have to construct
fake Gdk events for these, I'd mind even less if I could inject these through
glib signals, but a toolkit-neutral way to inject events seems ideal.  I
imagine such a thing exists internally to WebKit.
