WebKit itself comes with a bunch of test wrappers (and tests!) for
different platforms and if the aim of the exercise is to test webkit
then it seems like maybe we should just be installing and using those.
Midori would be fine for testing the parts of webkit that it uses, but
obviously it doesn't exercise anything other than the Gtk port which
still leaves you with a bit of a hole in your coverage.
