Comment (by sneaky):

 OWB happarently has working adblock in C++: https://github.com/deadwood-
 pl/OdysseyWebBrowser/blob/odyssey/Source/WebCore/loader/AdBlock.cpp

 I don't know a strategy for putting it into HaikuWebKit at this time. For
 one thing, I don't think I'd be allowed to put a file in
 Source/WebCore/loader/ because it'd affect upstream tree for no purpose?
 Also WebKit2 might open up a lot more options? So I'm not sure if the code
 seen in OWB is useful, but just in case, maybe it's useful to someone.

 Falkon has something similar, but oh gosh that's a lot of files:
