Would it be worth adding a test using _relatedWebView to verify what happens when you have two pages in the same process?

> Source/WebCore/Modules/web-locks/WebLockRegistry.h:76
> +    HashMap<ClientOrigin, PerOriginRegistry*> m_perOriginRegistries;

Can this be a weak pointer?

> Source/WebKit/WebProcess/WebCoreSupport/RemoteWebLockRegistry.messages.in:28
> +    DidCompleteLockRequest(WebCore::WebLockIdentifier lockIdentifier, WebCore::ScriptExecutionContextIdentifier clientID, bool success);
> +    DidStealLock(WebCore::WebLockIdentifier lockIdentifier, WebCore::ScriptExecutionContextIdentifier clientID);

It seems like this can be a completion handler on the RequestLock message that just contains whether it was success, failure, or stolen.  That would be nicer than introducing a new messages.in just for replies.

It can. It is not strictly needed but it is always better to be safe. I'll make the change.

There are several issues with that:
1. It could get called twice: once with success because we got the lock and a second time later on because our lock got stolen.
2. It may not get called at all (request may get aborted before it is processed)

Both are really compatible with CompletionHandler and this is why the API currently uses 2 Functions.
