WebKitGTK+ 2.2 Beta 1 adds an API to inject custom JavaScript code to the WebKit2 Web Extensions API, adds support for running JavaScript code in isolated worlds for the WebKit2 Web Extensions API, and exposes WebKitFrame in the WebKit2GTK+ Web Extensions API.

Among the bugs fixed in this release, we can mention an issue with the volume slider track which was displayed when muted, a crash in WebKit1 when the inspector window was closed, and the authentication dialog will now close when the load fails. Also, the Brazilian Portuguese translation has been updated.
