I had assumed that these GTK or QT browser widgets do not need either cef4delphi or cef3fpc. As your suggested WebKit version is GTK based I thought it helpful to note that the QT version has recently moved from QTWebKit to QTWebEngine which is based on Chromium.
However this may not be a practical option as I do not know the details of Lazarus support for the QT widget set. Also the QTWebEngine does not give programatic access to the DOM and finally, the wrapper for the WebKIt version is already available. So sorry for the red herring.

Stephen Wright wroteIn "The way forward: Exit the VCL/LCL, enter the DOM" Michael suggested using Chromium on Windows and WebKit on Linux. This is not an area I am familiar with but I see that the QT5 Web engine is Chromium based and wonder if it might be an option for Linux.If so this might simplify keeping Linux and Windows versions in line?
I tried to make chromium work on linux, but failed both with cef4delphi and cef3fpc.
