WebKit2 View Gestures (Swipe): Provide a way for clients to provide views to swipe

• Component: WebKit2
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Tim Horton]

Sometimes, clients want to swipe to or from a custom view hierarchy. Let's provide SPI to make this work (later we can think about the right way to do this, probably involving WebKit instantiating and owning the views on navigation to a particular scheme, or some such).

Implementation caveats: views must be layer backed and a contiguous, opaque rectangle.

std::move(views).

You don't want to return this by reference?
