GTK+ Kimmo Kinnunen wrote yesterday on the GTK+-WebCore developer mailing list that he has imported the Safari 2.0 WebCore branch into GTK+-WebCore. "This means that from the webcore/javascriptcore part, the code is mostly the same as in current Safari. So if there are any crashes, they're not from webcore/javascriptcore part of the codebase with very high probability, rather my code."

It would if they want their market share to go above 1%. Web developers have to deal all the quirks of Trident, Gecko and possibly KHTML/WebKit if they have access to it; debugging for Presto (Opera) on top of that to (with yet another JavaScript engine as well) is not worth the effort for minimal gains in users. Not even Prototype support Opera officially, they have too much hacking on their hands as it is.
