libgtkmozembed.so for Adobe Reader 8

Hello,

New Adobe Reader 8 requires some HTML rendering capabilities mainly for 
his new advertising splash-screen.

Therefore it needs that libgtkmozembed.so is present and set in the 
preferences (without this you get annoying popup at startup but PDF 
functionality works fine).

libgtkmozembed.so is in every linux-* browser port, I use one from 
www/linux-seamonkey. However I think we should not add any of the 
linux-* ports as a dependency.

How this should be solved? A separate port (but still pulling large 
distfile)? A wrapper? Any other ideas?
