It's the only supported way to install Wine Gecko. I don't see any reason to
not use it.

There is no way to do it with current way that we install the package. The
installer code is in mshtml.dll and all winetest does is it tries to create
HTMLDocument object, so it's exactly the same scenario as any other app using
MSHTML.
