Can we have a named constant for this? What does it mean? Is it ever exposed to clients of the WK API?

> WebKit2/UIProcess/WebPageProxy.h:177
> +    // These are only used on Mac currently.

Seems like a silly comment just before #if PLATFORM(MAC). Is there something more substantive to say about these functions?

> WebKit2/UIProcess/WebPageProxy.h:497
> +    // The current selection state.
> +    SelectionState m_selectionState;

Comment adds little. Leave it out?

> WebKit2/WebProcess/WebPage/WebPage.cpp:616
> +    location = static_cast<uint64_t>(-1);

Use that constant from above?
