Google no longer allows using WebView. What are the alternatives?

Viewed 10293

The new Google Play Developer Program Policies state that it is no longer allowed to publish web browsers that are based on WebView:

Do not post an app where the primary functionality is to:

Provide a webview of a website not owned or administered by you (unless you have permission from the website owner/administrator to do so)

I was thinking of developing a WebView-based web browser but now I see that this is no longer allowed.

Frankly, I find it insane to ask every website in existence for permission to display its content via a WebView based browser.

What are my options? Is there an alternative web kit that is as powerful as WebView?
