------- Additional Comments from Alexey Proskuryakov <ap at webkit.org>
I'm not saying that I'm necessarily against this change, but it needs a better
explanation. Does this work in IE? In Firefox? Opera Mobile? Are these pages
(which ones?) broken on iPhone? What do relevant specs say?

What does Android version history say about reasons for such deviation from
webkit.org?

I'm also unsure about what the scope of this change is. ChangeLog says "meta
tag parser", but it seems that code changes only affect meta viewport. In the
latter is the case, perhaps the question about IE and Firefox isn't valid, but
other ones still stand.

R- because of all the questions, and the lack of test case or an explanation
why one isn't possible.
