The "WebBrowser Control" means IWebBrowser2, which is just a little part
of SHDOCVW / MSHTML.  But I believe JavaScript, VBScript etc. all get
their abilities pretty directly via the COM interfaces.  That's why it was
possible to add Python as a "first-class" scripting language, on a par
with JavaScript etc. (or JScript, strictly).  So -- IIUC -- it really does
have to be in there, and it should be easy to find, too (in some sense of
"easy" ;-).
