Description Danilo de Paula 2016-02-08 09:29:10 PST 
WebKit2Gtk crashes when creating a WebView with g_object_new(WEBKIT_TYPE_WEB_VIEW, NULL).

It happens because _WebViewBasePrivate is initialized with a call to RunLoop::main(), but it has never been initialized (as it's only initialized when we get a context, like the webkit_get_default_context() call).
Initializing only the RunLoop causes other issue, so I realized that a full call to WebKit2Initialize should be made.

Patch is coming next...
