[webkit-dev] Why are the mock implementations in WebCore/platform?

[Jeremy Orlow]

Note that it's still a bit of an open question as to where mocks should live
in general. IIRC, the top candidates are like device orientation and speech
do now, somehow in some central place but not compiled into production
libraries, or in DRT (which means more copied code, but the platform layers
will be better exercised).

It would be nice to get this resolved once and for all and get the code
cleaned up.
