Webview support? #19

I read in the IUP docs that there is a WebBrowser control, but it states that it's Linux and Windows only.
Is it possible to implement a control that is able to embed something like this?

There will not be support for any additional controls (Plot, Scintilla, WebBrowser, etc.), the reasonings are in #5.

Basically, with only C core included, one can build on any platform with GTK+ or even Motif with plain go build. With additional controls that have C++ dependencies, I would probably have to build libs for all platforms or you lose the ease of use and create a painful-to-use library that no one will want/know how to use.

I would like only to add Cells and Matrix controls because something like ListView/TableView in the core is still on their TODO list, but that also requires the CD library, I will try to include it together with the core if possible when I find the time.

Btw. to embed something like webview, you must do it in the IUP, then here. These are just bindings.
