The webkit package in Debian was supposed to have everything necessary
for a11y before we made the switch, and I really thought this was
settled now. If webkit is still not ready for Orca - and this is news to
me - this is a matter that will also affect epiphany. If you can provide
more information to the webkit maintainers and the Orca maintainer, that
would be appreciated.

Sorry, but the gecko backend is not in a releasable state. Building yelp
against gecko is an option we can certainly not afford in the current
state of affairs.
