[webkit-dev] Unprefixing requestAnimationFrame

[James Simonsen]

I've posted a patch to remove the "webkit" prefix from
requestAnimationFrame. [1] The question is whether or not to continue to
support the prefixed version. I propose dropping it for the following
reasons:

1. We're changing the callback semantics to match the spec. [2]

2. IE10 is shipping with this unprefixed. [3]

3. Toolkits already use the unprefixed version. [4]

4. The advice on the internet recommends everyone use the polyfill
technique. [5]

I'm curious what everyone else thinks.
