"Thanks to the multiprocess architecture, WebKit2GTK+ solves the problem
of using flash (or any other plugin using GTK+2) with GTK+3. The UI
process depends unconditonally on GTK+3 and the plugin process is always
built with GTK+2. And of course, flash will never crash or block your
web browser. Plugins are broken in WebKitGTK+ 1.7.1 due to a bug that
has already been fixed, so in order to try it out you need to either
wait until 1.7.2 is released or build WebKit from current git master."
