TextureMapperImageBuffer was originally meant as a software fallback for accelerated compositing.
However, as we put more and more strain on the compositor (e.g. with direct compositing), the software fallback makes less and less sense in its current form, and makes it more complex to improve and optimize the GL backend.
Since QWebView relies on this feature, the suggestion for Qt is to switch to using having a QGLWidget that runs TextureMapperGL internally, and integrates into the QWebView via Qt and the windowing system.

There is no QtWebKit long time ago, and there is no TextureMapperImageBuffer
since https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/183807
