I am also new to the DirectFB, some here is just preliminary thought for 
your referrence.

 From the dependency point of view, you want a webkit-fb which is 
depending on gtk+-fb which in turn is depending on DirectFB. so probably 
you need:
- a gtk-fb recipes. it can reuse current gtk+ recipe, but add directfb 
target, like EXTRA_OECONF += " --with-gdktarget=directfb "
- a webkit-fb recipe: it can reuse the current webkit-gtk recipe, but 
add directfb target: EXTRA_OECONF += " --with-target=directfb "

it is not related to qt4-embedded, so you don't need to add qt4-embedded.
