Comment on attachment 236411 [details] Patch This seems worse than the old version. All those null checks at all the call sites are messy.

All those null checks at all the call sites are messy. Yes, they are! This is an incremental change. see Changlog entry: "This is in preparation to ensure that we always pass a valid repaint container to repaint functions. (tracked here webkit.org/b/135817). This changeset has explicit view() calls which are going to be removed once containerForRepaint() starts returning container reference." My plan is to enforce containerForRepaint() to return a reference. There's a chance that it's not possible without some major changes so I decided to do it incrementally. However, I wasn't planning to commit these intermediate changes until after the goal is met. (so those null checks should never land on trunk.) I should have been more vocal about it in the bug description.
