Correction - it has got into the wxPython master branch.
I had another attempt at building a clone from the current master branch:
cd /home/richardt/Sources/development/python/wxpython
mkdir local_repo
cd local_repo
git clone https://github.com/wxWidgets/Phoenix
That will create a sub-directory âPhoenixâ containing a clone of the repository
cd Phoenix
git status
This should output the following:
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'
Nothing to commit, working tree clean
Then run:
git submodule init
git submodule update --recursive
cd ext/wxWidgets
git submodule update --init 3rdparty/catch
git submodule update --init 3rdparty/nanosvg
git submodule update --init 3rdparty/pcre
cd ../..
python3 build.py dox etg --nodoc sip build
This will build wxPython, but not install it.
To test it locally:
export PYTHONPATH=/home/richardt/Sources/development/python/wxpython/local_repo/Phoenix:$PYTHONPATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/richardt/Sources/development/python/wxpython/local_repo/Phoenix/wx
richardt@Avalon:.../wxpython/local_repo/Phoenix $ python3

I then ran a small test app which uses wx.html2 to display a simple web-browser and was able to successfully open the webpage https://wxpython.org/
So the master branch does have the fix for libwebkit2gtk-4.1.
I think the reason that it didnât appear to work for me when I tried earlier was that I hadnât set PYTHONPATH correctly 
Note: /home/richardt/Sources is a symbolic link to /mnt/SSD_3/Sources.
