As discussed in the mailing list [1], it would be nice in some cases to have a way to tell WebKit to have AC mode enabled all the time, avoiding it to having it repeateadly leaving/re-entering AC mode whenever the conditions that need to be fulfilled change.

Originally proposed as a public API, that's perhaps too much, so perhaps something simpler like recognizing a environment variable WEBKIT_FORCE_ACCELERATED_COMPOSITING would be a better option.
