Hi webkit-dev,

This is a request for WebKit's position on New Canvas 2D API features.

Summary

Updated functionality for the Canvas2D API. Adds nine new features/functions to CanvasRenderingContext2D:

  - "ContextLost" and "ContextRestored" events

  - "willReadFrequently" option for canvases where lots of readback is expected

  - CSSColorValues as style inputs

  - More CSS text modifier support

  - A reset function

  - A roundRect draw primitive

  - Full 4x4 transformation matrices

  - Conic gradients

  - Better support for SVG filters
