Yes, that works in Keynote '09 (The inspector now has an Update Now button, and a tick-box to update automatically). Additionally I can change it to a different URL and it will update. I wonder why they removed it.

If anyone wants to try this, I've put a Keynote 08 presentation with a single slide containing a web view at http://degas.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~jsh2/KeynoteWebview.key.zip

I can enable that image to be a hyperlink to the webpage it came from. But, I can't embed an actual Webkit view (to the image say) in my presentation. Is that what you're trying to do?
