Excpet that they wouldn't. Omniweb includes its own copy of
the Webkit framework. The latest version uses the same webkit
that came out with Safari 4.0.3. It was released in Aug '09.

If you can call that “care”

And yet the US population still opposes the idea of a national health service
as in the UK.

I'm retired and although I may have financial problems, I have no worries
that my doctor will 'quit me'. It costs us all of course throughout our
working lives, but I recently had a cataract operation that cost me
absolutely nothing. It's an enormous benefit. Why don't you vote for it?

Someone has created a rebundled copy of Safari 4.x with the matching
WebKit as a framework inside the application, which allows it to be
installed alongside Safari 5.

http://michelf.com/projects/multi-safari/

Haven't needed it myself yet as I haven't had time to ugprade to Safari
5 or 10.6.4 yet.

Here is another relevant article, which includes an untested Safari
4.0.5 for Leopard (the above link has Safari 4.0.5 for Snow Leopard but
only 4.0.3 for Leopard):
