Actually I would like it to be removed before May. I am going to bump bugs
severities to important soon (in January) and make them RC a couple of months
after that (i.e. in March) to get the packages removed from testing (or fixed).

I am also going to remove the PyQt5 QtWebKit bindings very soon (in a couple
of weeks).

So maybe it's not the best idea to introduce a new package using QtWebKit.

Lisandro, you did not reply to this part of Steve's message, what do you think?
