Indeed in my particular example the canvas 2d doesn't create a separate m_contentsLayer (even with compositing forced).

It so-happened that with the WebGL example I created, the snapshot of the backface-visibility that the contents layer did happened before the parent was initialized to the value specified in the HTML.  In principle though, any dynamic change of the backface-visibility would have doomed the patch.

A patch which has the contents layer reach into its parent layer to determine its visibility produces the correct results and is robust to dynamic changes.  I'll upload once I've cleaned it up (then we can torch it for structural reasons).
