Description Michael Catanzaro 2023-02-01 08:48:21 PST 
We should document favicon database changes in migration guide. The favicon database is now enabled by default, and it moved from WebKitWebContext to WebKitWebsiteDataManager.
Comment 1 Michael Catanzaro 2023-02-01 09:25:51 PST 
Let's document downloads changes too. E.g. the download-started signal moved from WebKitWebContext to WebKitNetworkSession, and webkit_web_context_download_uri() is replaced with webkit_network_session_download_uri().
Comment 2 Michael Catanzaro 2023-02-01 09:32:40 PST 
"All the networking
APIs have been moved from [type@WebKit.WebContext] and [type@WebKit.WebsiteDataManager] to the new class
[type@WebKit.NetworkSession]."

I will expand on this. Affected APIs are:

webkit_web_context_clear_cache
webkit_web_context_download_uri
webkit_web_context_get_cookie_manager
webkit_web_context_prefetch_dns
WebKitWebContext::download-started
Comment 3 Michael Catanzaro 2023-02-01 15:14:46 PST 
There are a lot more affected APIs in WebKitWebsiteDataManager. Can't plausibly mention them all.
