23 How much Gnome stuff needs qt-webkit? I figured that gnome stuffs
24 would be much more likely to require webkit-gtk , yes?
25
26 So a KDE user, with USE="-gstreamer" , is most likely not going to run
27 into this issue yes? And Gnome users that have webkit-gtk[gstreamer]
28 packages don't run into this issue with chromium anyways, right?

31 thinking of the general scope of impact here)
