Is the functionality > still present and useful on newer versions of WebKitGTK? AFAIK both webkitgtk and ns webkit both follow the same API from the core webkit project. Thus if plugins are deprecated in webkitgtk, so too are they deprecated in ns webkit (see https://developer.apple.com/documentation/webkit/wkpreferences/1536894-pluginsenabled?language=objc for confirmation). I think these plugins were things like flash or java applets, support for which has been removed from all major browsers due to security and performance issues along with better alternatives.
