This is already the case, but you're not the only one. I think there
must be something wrong with APT.

The epiphany-browser 2.20 package depends on epiphany-gecko |
epiphany-webkit, which are both new. I think this issue is caused by
epiphany-extensions being installed, as it depended on epiphany-browser
(<< 2.19). This means upgrading epiphany-browser to 2.20 implies in all
cases the removal of epiphany-extensions. Of two broken solutions, APT
chose the second one while it should have selected the first one.

Cheers,
