I don't know. But when you start saying "No-one could *possibly* want to do that, so let's stop supporting it" then you are riding for a fall. Why make ourselves hostages to fortune? Why not make *sure* we avoid the problem rather than gambling that we've second-guessed our entire user base? Murphy's law applies, so play it safe unless there's a compelling reason not to.
You are adding the overhead of changing user behavior though. The claws backend might be a good reason, frankly it is the only one I see so far.
OK, just checked Debian and Ubuntu and both have the dillo viewer plugin for sylpheed with a dependency on the plain "dillo" package.
Looking around in the FLTK docs, there's this function:
CreatedWindow::set_xid()
It looks promising. Unfortunately I haven't found a full code example to make it work.
If somebody knows how to use it, it'd be simple to make a "drop in" replacement for dillo1, and avoid the problems discussed in this thread.
I think it's supposed to work more or less like in attached test program. When called with a (decimal) window id (from xlsclients) it draws a small but visible frame on that window. I don't know why it doesn't work correctly. Probabely some more setup necessary...
Dejan L. sent me this code as an example: http://www.dillo.org/test/gnash.cc ufortunately I can't get to make something that works with it. -- Cheers Jorge.-
