           Summary: [Gtk] No need to erase background before loading a new
                    page
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: Gtk
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

        ReportedBy: joone.hur at collabora.co.uk


WebKitGtk+ erases background before loading a new page.
So, if it takes some time to load the page, users have to see the empty page for a second.
This makes the user think that the page loading is very slow.

However, in the case of other WebKit based browser, 
they leave the current page before preparing the layout of a new page, 
and then just replace the current page with the new one.
