That's how KHTML has pulled in JavaScript support in the first year or so, 
too. Back in the times when browsing the Web without JS was still an 
option.

There was a very leight weight proxy class that loaded the interpreter and 
bindings on demand and relayed all calls to it. The remainders 
(ecma/kjs_proxy.cpp) are still there and I volunteer to re-implemented the 
same thing for Chusslove if he wants to have it.
