            Bug ID: 224344
           Summary: [Cocoa] Silence a CFNetwork preference file access
                    warning
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: InRadar
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: bfulgham at webkit.org

CFNetwork, which is linked to the WebContent process, but is not used for actual networking operations there, attempts to read a preference value in 'com.apple.CFNetwork.plist'. We do not need to access these preferences outside of the Network process, and should not allow it.

Since CFNetwork treats this as a non-critical failure, and does not provide a way to hint that the preference read attempt can be avoided, we should just silence the report to avoid wasting processing cycles generating logging and backtraces.
