Just displaying new content is not good enough. I am not interested in
starting a new activity to surf to a web page.

I want an HTML page with HTML -> C++ (or... Qt's JS) and from my
application code to call the JS on the page. I want my application to
interact with the web page.

I like Mark's idea about disconnecting between the HTML engine and Qt -
using the system HTML engine, and not embedding our own. I have no idea how
to implement this, as I am not sure how deep is the connection between
QtWebKit and Qt is.

Maybe a reboot of the idea is needed, QtHTML that has less features, but
knows how to work with Gecko, Android's HTML native system, Trident,
whatever. Again, STFU n00b and code... I completely understand, and I will
shut up now :)
