Summary [GTK] Artifacts when using web view background color

This is easy to reproduce by using the MiniBrowser in editable mode, try something like this: MiniBrowser --bg-color="rgba(255,0,0,1)" -e Write someting and move the cursor or select text, you will see that some areas are not repainted at all. This is because when using a web view color, we fill with the color every rectangle updated by the web process, but we should always fill the entire backing store before rendering the actual contents on top.

Comment on attachment 273422 [details] Patch This doesn't work, sometimes we render the bg color over the contents

Created attachment 273423 [details] Different approach This fixes the problem from the web process side. It's a it more aggressive, because it always sends updates to the Ui process for the whole visible content rectangle, but it's the only way I've managed to fix the problem.
