Could it be an option to use the stable Chromium web-kit sources instead?
Definitely, that's something i considered doing late in the contract but
was running out of time and didn't wan't to ruin the reasonably good
state of things. There was also a consequence for the source control
workflow, as we wouldn't be a git branch of webkit but more like a patch
set that we would apply on top of stable chromium webkit branches. Note
that those chromium svn branches don't have git clones and that's a real
pain. In the end, i tried many things, but my brain exploded eventually
(i had other issues already) :)
I'm sure one of our git experts can chime in.
Example of the branch that powers the current chromium on my ubuntu
12.04: http://trac.webkit.org/log/branches/chromium/1025?limit=500
Note that our port is based on a slightly more recent rev than the
latest fix they merged in, so that by chance we're close from what that
chromium/1025 stable release uses.
In the end, going that way sounds like our only viable option
considering the size of our webkit team and the complexity of the
project. But that needs some thought about our workflow.

Alex
