We never solved the document domain issue right (if I remember correctly
you failed to get a in-activity web server running)?

Current web activities are super simple but as they become more complex I

not have to figure out WebKit1 *and* WebKit2 solutions every time that
happens.

time I plan to look into doing these rebuilds in an automated way using
COPR.
