Well, It's considerably newer than the system WebKit.

There are very good reasons we picked 13302--mostly because we would have to reimplement some features from scratch to move very far forward from there.

That said, we have already picked up some changes from later versions of webkit to fix other bugs and we have fixed some crashers that still don't have fixes on the head.

Once 5.5 has shipped, we will look at how hard it is to move forward from here.

On major feature that will have to be redone is "Zoomed Editing" since WebKit no longer uses the Cocoa Text System for editing text areas and our feature was based on that...
