Let me try to detail that a bit, also for future reference (let me know if
I got it wrong).

* Add webkit1 support to sugar-toolkit-gtk3, i.e. land Gonzalo patch. (I
suppose it still make sense to have it upstream so that other distributions
can reuse it easily if they want?)
* Allow sugar-web contributors to break webkit1 support.
* Allow interested parties to land sugar-toolkit-gtk3 patches that adapt
webkit1 support.
* Do not allow special casing of sugar-web to support webkit1.

I'd be happy with that and it feels like a good compromise given the
opinions people have been expressing on the thread so far.
