Yes, but webkit-sharp in main may be less desirable that this.

I have no real idea if this is better. I was asked to merge
mono-tools as it handn't been touched at the point I was asked.
I don't mind my work being thrown away, but it means that I need
at least some guidance.

Is using webkit-sharp instead a good idea?

Thanks,

James
