What are these flags used for (or what are they going to be used for)? AFAIK, old-run-webkit-tests has a --repeat-each flag, but that's implemented by looping in the script, not in DRT, and doesn't have a --js-flags script.

Does upstream DRT support these flags, or just Chromium DRT?

How does --multiple-loads actually interact with the framework? Do we only dump output for the first load, or the last load, or something?

As far as the actual coding of the patch goes ...

1) Is it actually possible to pass an option in that preserves the quotation marks, or will you need to actually enclose the option in quotes every time (i.e., can both branches of that test execute)?

2) I'm not wild about using --multiple-loads=0 to indicate "use the default value". It seems like --multiple-loads=0 should turn off the feature, and I'm not sure what the savings would be over just typing --multiple-loads=5 ?
