I'm not ok with having epiphany in main at this time.

While there have been a number of webkit2gtk security updates recently, at this point in time we don't know how long it will continue to be maintained upstream in an API/ABI compatible way that would make it supportable for an LTS release. For now, I recommend just having it be used by applications in main that don't parse untrusted content.

Is there any reason why we don't just open it in the default browser? What would be the benefit in opening it in a browser the user doesn't normally use?
