           Summary: Platform network layer should be able to differentiate
                    WebFrameLoaderClient from WebCore platform clients
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Platform
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: kb at inf.u-szeged.hu


In most of the ports the network backend is somewhat bounded to the platform specific API-s. For example Qt has a QWebPage::setNetworkAccessManager(QNetworkAccessManager*) API. The object that has set here is used in ResourceHandle. In the web process implementation of WebKit2, we have no platform specific FrameLoaderClient neither platform specific wrappers around WebPage, WebFrame, etc. so the backend should just do it's job without taking care of those API-s. However, it should be informed about that. My idea is to introduce a new virtual function in FrameLoaderClient (e.q. isPlatformClient).
