[webkit-dev] WebKit partial rendering issue

[Erik Walter]

I've seen similar issues on a non-DirectFB port, but it turned out to  
be related to a bug in the ScrollView::paint() method.  It wasn't  
properly clipping the drawing and when Google was blinking the cursor  
in the text box, it ends up erasing the whole window instead of just  
the inner textbox.  Anything that forces a redraw of the widget, of  
course, fixes it as it will then render the whole area, not just the  
cursor.  I saw it when going to www.apple.com and watching the  
updating news area, the headlines change and the title "Hot New  
Headlines" would get erased everytime it updated.

dunno if that's helpful or not.
