           Summary: Add RetainedModeBitmapImage to mark it is safe to
                    decode asynchronously.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Images
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: luxtella at company100.net


Because image decoding is used in various contexts in WebKit, it is simply
impossible to make all decoding asynchronous. Instead, we selectively use async
image decoders where possible and use the existing sequential image decoders otherwise.
RetainedModeBitmapImage wraps a BitmapImage and helps decide when it is safe and beneficial
to use async image decoders.
