Not really. Very few users would download and build a newer version than
is provided by their distro, and that Epiphany has been improving so
much recently is unusual.

(This brings up another issue with Epiphany: the release cycle should be
adjusted to cater to distros that cannot upgrade its dependencies in a
stable release. Or maybe it'd be mostly sufficient if Fedora was willing
to do major WebKit updates?)
