[webkit-dev] 10.4.7 WebKit seems more 'flickery'

[David Hyatt]

We're looking into this... it's the QuickTime plug-in that is  
flickering when scrolling.  I looked at it on 10.4.6 on a PPC machine  
and 10.4.7 on an Intel machine and only saw the flickering on  
10.4.7.  Thanks for bringing it to our attention.   (Note that Flash  
already has flickering problems when scrolling with Flash 8 because  
of a rendering mode they use only with Safari.  I believe someone  
said Flash 9 might fix that issue.)
