There are other activities like SocialCalc trying to use more interaction
between python and dom/javascript,
but are a pile of hacks.

I think there are work in webkit2 to implement DOM, but I don't know if is
merged in F15.
Right now you can execute javascript, but to get a value is also a hack
(changing the title and getting
the value from the python property) You can see this in the read activity in
epubview/widgets.py
