Of interest to Linux web browser developers-- I have published a simple, 
XEmbed-aware, open source, NPAPI plugin:

Hopefully, this plugin already plays well with Epiphany, though I have 
no suitable Gnome setup with which to test. Going further, I hope this 
plugin will serve as a testbench for making windowless plugins work on 
Unix web browsers.
