The reason the Mozilla dependency holds me back is that I don't like the fact of having to install a full-featured web browser in order to install the browser I actually want to use (and I do want to use Epiphany). I'm just wondering whether the problem was at the Mozilla folks not releasing a "standalone engine" to build against, or if it was just the Epiphany folks simply not implementing to use that "standalone engine".
