I appreciate that you've followed the master-bug idiom which is so common in
bugs.webkit.org these days!

I also would *strongly* encourage you to post your changes in as small of
patches as possible.  Integrating features which have been developed outside
webkit.org is always difficult, but doing things in small (or even tiny!)
patches will make your life easiest in the long run.

I'm happy to help review your (small!) changes if CC'd.
