AFAIK using Seed won't automagically give you DOM access, you just
happen to be using the same language browsers give people by default
to mess with their DOM. What we need is C/GObject to the DOM
(https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16401), and when that's done
both Python and Seed will be able to access it just fine. So unless
I'm wrong this is a non-issue in our case.
