Comment(by lucian):

 The way I see it, converting to PDF isn't ideal: 1) it's a lossy
 conversion and 2) it'll be opened by a different activity.

 As Sacha says, in Webified there's a proof of concept for saving complete
 web pages (just like firefox), putting them in a zip and later opening
 them with Browse:
 http://git.sugarlabs.org/browse/webified/commit/25450e1f18701402eb3bdba3a7c3297f61ac752a
 http://git.sugarlabs.org/browse/webified/commit/7005fb13a31f26704ec561d8e71bb4f82274fb3c

 I don't have time for it now, but it shouldn't be hard to port it to
 Browse mainline. The main problem with the patch(es) as it is now is that
 it doesn't clean up after it correctly.
