[webkit-dev] "Tools/Scripts/webkit-patch rebaseline-expectations" does not launch html comparison page?

[Elliot Poger]

Perhaps I should approach this from a different angle:

What is the recommended procedure for:
- generating new baseline images for a few dozen failing tests, on various
platforms
- visually inspecting them to make sure they're not bogus
- committing them, along with test_expectations changes, to the WebKit repo
