Thanks for the review.

It can be used. We switched long time ago to use only the internal API, because the code is a lot simpler, to avoid unnecessary casts and memory allocations in some cases. We didn't know this was a problem for Apple, I've always considered the C API as public for wk users not for the ports, and we indeed expose both APIs, so that WebKitGTK+ users can use the GTK+ high level API or the C API directly. Switching back to use the C API now would be a lot of work and we are currently at the end of our release cycle.
