[webkit-dev] Disabled layout tests - we should get them re-enabled

[Maciej Stachowiak]

Hi everyone,

A number of the WebKit layout tests are disabled, presumably because  
at some point they would hang or crash the test tool. It's likely some  
of these actually work ok now, but whoever disabled them neglected to  
turn them on later. I recently re-enabled some of the disabled tests.

I think it would be a good exercise to go through these, test which  
ones can be enabled, turn those back on, and document which ones still  
hang or crash (and the reason why, if known).

This would be a great task for someone relatively new to WebKit  
development or testing, as it will teach you about our regression  
testing system, which is a key part of how we do our work. So rather  
than doing all the remaining 51 disabled tests myself, I am posting  
the list here in case anyone else is interested.
