Yeah, on debian I think there's a package, I'll install and play with it over the weekend. Tbh, having seen the way mozilla's api changes between releases, making it a maintainability nightmare, I'm ready to investigate another engine (I'd thought of v8 before but couldn't find a Debian package for it and didn't want to do the work myself). I'll also have a look at the api to see if it's worth changing.
