Actually, if they use the /usr/include/xulrunner/gtkembedmoz/gtkmozembed.h
header, they must already build-depend on libgtk2.0-dev themselves
because you cant use the gtkmozembed API without using the gtk API
yourself (you at least need to run the gtk main loop).

OTOH, the gtkmozembed API is not mandatory and not the sole purpose of
the libxul-dev package.

The most I could do would be to add a recommends, and that would change
nothing for buildds.
