No, it would be duplicating work.  wxWindows already renders HTML, both
viewing and printing, and supports a multiplicity of platforms rather than
just the M$ base.  By switching to wxWindows at this point the developers can
avoid having to reinvent the wheel and can expand their platform base at the
same time, rather than fixing HTML in the current product and *then* redoing
the whole thing again.
