--- Comment #8 from Basuke Suzuki <Basuke.Suzuki at sony.com> ---
Goal:

- Modernize the codebase to 2021 perl syntax conventions
- Modularize by features.
- Modularize by platform.
- Stop using ad-hoc command line arguments. Document them well.
  (detect misspelled option)
- Passing cmake arguments easily. (i.e. arguments after "--" will be passed to cmake. Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --wincairo -- -DUSE_SYSTEM_MALLOC=Off)

Currently the last one is already implemented, but it conflicts with the other goal, "stop using ad-hoc command" because there's no clear separation to options to cmake args. Using "--" is a new thing and a good sign to introduce new features, I think.
