As Rune already told you, there are some lightweight browsers already
(midori, kazehakase, arora, etc.)

If you were planning on building a GUI over webkit, I suggest you to
contribute to one of those, maybe "pushing" it towards LXDE integration.

If you were planning on writing an HTML/CSS/JS parser/engine, I would
suggest to focus your work on EPUB/EPUB2 support.
They are very similar to HTML+CSS (and Javascript in EPUB2).

As of today there is no open source "epub engine library" to build a GUI
on, and there is no epub2 parser at all. They would be a huge contribute
not only to LXDE, but to the whole open source community.

Bye.
