It's dead upstream, and it's gonna be stuck on WebKit1 forever, so it's
very insecure to the point where it should arguably be dropped from
Fedora, and it's affected by WebKit crashes that will never be fixed,
and there are no signs this will change. If someone starts maintaining
Geary (including working on the WebKit2 port, possibly by rebasing
Geary on Pantheon Mail) then we could consider it; otherwise, this is a
blocker issue IMO.

I don't think we should switch from a well-maintained client to one
that receives no maintenance anyway. Evolution upstream is actively
working on porting to WebKit2 and have made lots of good progress, and
they're great about responding to bug reports.
