Further to marmistrz's link, here's my repo. It's a few commits ahead, a bit of clean up, some refactoring and beginnings of bookmark support. The aim was going to be to track as much cpp code from sailfish-browser as possible so I only really had UI code to work on. I didn't want to start working on qt5 until the xcb workaround was properly solved and more projects were working with it.

Qt Quick Controls can be themed, like what is done at the moment for Desktop in qt5.3 and Android and iOS in qt5.4.

qt-components-hildon could be used as a reference for the theme. This was something I'd been toying with for Jessie. Ditch as much QtMaemo5 stuff as possible and externalize the remaining module like libqt5x11extras5 so I could use stock Debian qt5.
Qt5/GTK3/general outdated libs are a real annoyance to me.
With regards to gtk2, I don't see why there wouldn't be a way. At the end of the day qtmozembed only acts as a simplified wrapper around existing functions within embedlite. Can we not just track down the last version of gtkmozembed and see what needs adapting to work with recent embedlite/gecko. I would rather use embedlite because IIRC it works on a similar design to the changes used in microb.
