            Bug ID: 209806
           Summary: Silence preference write sandbox violations in the
                    WebContent process
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: pvollan at apple.com

When CFPrefs direct mode is enabled in the WebContent process, the UI process will notify the WebContent about preference changes. When receiving these notifications, the WebContent process will  use the CFPrefs API to update the value of these preferences in-process, which will also attempt to write these values to disk. Writing the preference values to disk is unnecessary, and will also be denied by the sandbox, so the sandbox violations should be silenced.
