Not relevant to the aforementioned wiki page, as this is way upstream still, but Debian has made progress on the package on their end [1] but note this does not mean it has yet landed in the official repos, as there is more work to be done.

In response to some of the comments, I should note that the browser has bookmarks, history, sessions, plugins (in the sense of audio/video plugins like Flash, not necessarily some of the fancy deals available for Firefox and Chromium e.g. VideoDownloadHelper in Firefox or Angry Birds in Chromium), JavaScript, certificate, and cookie support.

I'd sort of argue that if we need more than that, we might as well replace LXDE with Gnome and Unity, but that's just my 2¢.
