[QGIS-Developer] Clarifications on web widgets in pyqgis (QtWebKitWidgets vs QtWebEngineWidgets)

Dear list,

As far as I understood :
- qgis.PyQt.QtWebKitWidgets is not available for some users (e.g. on mac),
as it is was deprecated from Qt, and is only provided through qgis's Qt
which apparently isn't the case on all platforms (see
http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/QGIS-Developer-qgis2web-and-qtwebkit-td5378226.html
and
many others reports)
- PyQt5.QtWebEngineWidgets is not always available either, and even when
available, it is unusable (see https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/26048 ->
recommends to use QtWebKitWidgets )

So I am correct understand this leaves us with no cross-platform and
reliable way to display browser widgets in PyQGIS ?
Or did I miss something?

Thanks !!

Olivier
