I am a taker. My Initial plan is:

1. Find out what all in MythTV and plugins use QtWebKit.

2. Test all the features that use it and make sure they work..

3. Port from QtWebKit to QtWebEngine

4. Test all the features that use it and make sure they work..

Does anybody have issues with using QtWebEngine as the replacement?
