Summary The Gtk+ WebKit API namespace (webkit_gtk) is ugly

The naming convention that has arisen for the Gtk+ WebKit public API is not very elegant or conventional. eg. webkit_gtk_frame_new() The _gtk component is redundant and should be removed. eg. webkit_frame_new() It may even be an idea to reduce webkit_ to web_ as suggested by andersca... eg. web_frame_new() This makes the API less verbose and also self-describing in a cute kind of way -- everyone can imagine what a "Web Frame" is.

web_ also matches the Web prefix used in the Mac API, and definitely leads to nicer sounding function names than the two alternatives that were mentioned.
