Midori still depends on an old version of WebKitGTK+, so it has not had
any security updates in a long time. It's irresponsible to ship it

(This is a problem for a lot of software we ship in Workstation as
well, notably Evolution, Empathy, Rhythmbox, and Shotwell, but it's
even worse for a web browser.)
