            Bug ID: 166999
           Summary: Consider consolidating CellStates to NeedsBarrier and
                    DontNeedBarrier.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

The PossiblyBlack, DefinitelyWhite, and PossiblyGrey states have meanings that very subtle and are non-intuitive.  Unless we find a need to distinguish between Grey and White states, it's more intuitive to rename these as follows:
    Rename PossiblyBlack to NeedsBarrier
    Rename DefinitelyWhite to DontNeedBarrier
    Remove PossiblyGrey.  It actually maps to DontNeedBarrier.
