> I suspect this is the core confusion.  For other ports, WebKit itself draws all the input UI, like the cursor, etc.  In this case, Chromium is drawing it's own selection UI (in addition to WebKits) and thus needs a hook to tell WebKit to update it's part of things.   As Ryosuke points out, if this were in WebKit, most of the code would just be in EventHandler.cpp (the drawing code likely in RenderThemeChromiumAndroid?).

It’s drawn by WebCore even. See CaretBase::paintCaret in FrameSelection.cpp.

I concur. This "feels wrong".
