------- Additional Comments from Kenneth Russell <kbr at google.com>
>From the ChangeLog:

Switched Chromium's compositor to use GraphicsContext3D to issue its OpenGL
rendering calls rather than the Chromium-specific GLES2Context and command
buffer OpenGL implementation.

The in-process software rendering path for GraphicsContext3D does not yet work
with the compositor, at least not on Mac OS X. This will be worked on in
subsequent bugs.

Tested manually with 3D CSS, WebGL and video content on Mac OS X and Linux. No
new tests.
