            Bug ID: 221990
           Summary: [GTK] Bubblewrap sandbox should not break X11
                    forwarding

           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK

Currently the bubblewrap sandbox breaks X11 forwarding via SSH, I suspect because the web process is unable to connect to the X server via TCP due to being isolated in a network namespace. We should just disable the network namespace in this case and accept that such configurations are less secure. Untested patch incoming. I will ask a couple users who use X11 forwarding to test the patch and will request review once somebody confirms whether it actually works.
