  That's a minor bug of claws-mail-feeds-reader :)

  Dillo was removed because it was a GTK+1.x program, and GTK+1.x was removed
from Debian time ago, hence the Dillo plugin had to be removed to, more than
two years ago, BTW:

  To the first question: none AFAIK.
  To the second: yes, of course, but probably not very useful:
  http://snapshot.debian.org/binary/claws-mail-dillo-viewer/
