Does anyone know what version of Webkit iBooks uses? Or what version of Chrome that corresponds to, roughly, given that Apple probably adds/subtracts features to/from Webkit for iBooks?

I am interesting in using flex boxes--seems perfect for iBooks which need to display on different screen sizes and orientations, for diagrams and little graphics--and although it works perfectly in Chrome 21 the settings (display: -webkit-flex; ) seem to be ignored by iBooks.

The App Store reports that the current version of iBooks is 2.1.1, updated Apr 16, 2012, which seems like an eternity ago.
