widget?  The performance of wxHTML (and previously the BibleTime
KHTML) widget is terrible.  The first time I tried to open one of
these modules using a wxHTML widget it took upwards of 5 minutes,
whereas Firefox was able to gobble it up in a few seconds.

I would imagine QtWebKit to be more akin (and maybe faster) to
Firefox's performance than wx's.  I'll give it a go and see how it
turns out with Early Church Fathers.  Also, when you say "lazy
loading" do you mean the user can scroll continuously through the
entire work, and you just feed the widget more data as it is needed?
Because that would be an equivalent Use Case with better
under-the-hood performance.

Hmm, that's an interesting thing I wasn't aware of.  I might have to
fidget with that to see how/if it works.
