>From what I have heard, it does use webkit by default, but in 3.6 the
webkit setup had some issues (not sure here though).  I heard the 3.7
support should be better.

As for xulrunner 2.0 support, then I heard that is very unlikely.  For
the eclipse package I am definitely not expecting anything, especially
after I had a chat with a Fedora developer, who tried to do the actual
porting for Fedora.
