Hello Richard,
seems like everyone forgot to answer your question.

More or less recently, there was some change inside the NetSurf API,
which may makes this more easy. The frontend code can contain the
mainloop now:
http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/commit/?id=dfb774c2458f749ebafba77ef30f2d16e80032e7
However, there is a problem: The frontend only receives localized text
messages when the netsurf engine changes it's state.
Websites, however, can open severeal frames/windows. You can not easily
make sure for which window your receive status texts, you do not receive
one single "RENDERING_FINISHED" message. AFAIK there is no reliable
mechanism implemented to cleanly report "end of rendering" to host applications.
Greets,
Ole
