I don't think that's the case per se. The Plugin API still exists
within the WebKit.framework. I saw some rumblings on the 'net about
the API being deprecated, but couldn't find anything definitive on
Apple's developer website.

I'm no Cocoa expert, so there's probably a thousand reasons why I
failed, but I couldn't even get the "WebKitPluginStarter" example from
developer.apple.com to work. Looks like it was created long ago, so
maybe it's bit-rotted. Safari did load it (unlike the GWT plugin),
but it didn't actually work.

I really wish somebody from the GWT development team would see this
thread (and issue #6601
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=6601) and
reply.

Lion & Safari 5.1 are definitely brand new, but I find it hard to
believe that nobody on the GWT team was involved with the developer
previews of Lion.
