[FYI] WEBKIT

True - haven't done that - think it wouldn't distinguish between identical
frameworks installed in different places. I guess my main interest is where
the WebKit framework that Rev uses is.

By looking in the bundles of Safari and the nightly WebKit.app builds - it
is clear that Safari is using a system library framework, while the
WebKitt.app bundles the frameworks inside the bundle - which makes sense. I
assume Rev does the same thing as Safari, all though I have established that
some Safari plugins do not take with Rev's WebKit. Apparently this is
because plugins can be written in such a way as to depend on Safari
specifics and not just WebKit?
