As far as I understand the redisplay engine, it works at a far lower
level of abstraction than KHTML, so I don't think that'd be a viable
fit: all the layout and stuff is pretty much backend-independent; the
rediplay backends just ship out the bits to the display.

Yeah, but judging from the total size of the code, I'm assuming it's
reasonable.
