Uzbl itself doesn't use much gtk stuff (only the statusbar) so we could do without gtk.

Besides, a curses/xlib html form wouldn't look too nice, would it? -Edit: There is a webkit port using the EFL toolkit which is supposed to be more lightweight (http://codeposts.blogspot.com/2008/12/webkit-ported-to-enlightenment.html ) but we're not sure how usable it already is +Officially, it also supports QT and wxwigdets.
