           Summary: Awful image quality in image scaling
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Gtk
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ratup at lavabit.com


Just like how firefox/gecko had terrible image scaling, so does webkitgtk

QtWebKit 4.6.3 appears uses nearest neighbour, while WebKitGtk uses smooth bilinear. Smooth bilinear results in subpar image quality, therefore I suggest that webkitgtk switches to lanczos which firefox and chrome and use.
