=Qt WebEngine / Qt WebKit=


==Past:==
* There has been about a year to come to a point where we are ready to replace QtWebKit
* More complex features like the JS bridge are planned to be covered by the QtWebChannel
* Support for Windows to be added for Qt 5.4
* Linux support is stable, Mac works but can have issues
==Future:==
* Bring feature parity is on the way, with some exceptions
==General discussion:==
* Need to more aggressively make proven experimental <span class="caps">API</span>s public
* Memory overhead of QtWebEngine compared to QtWebKit vs. the reliability gain
* Process of updating Chromium: the lower difficulty allows updating more often
* <span class="caps">SSL</span> certificates exceptions, if the application needs to take care of it, and the need to make that process asynchronous in the user interface
==Wished features discussion:==
* Controls over the cookie jar and used proxy settings
