When updating the compositing layer tree, at each compositing layer, we unparent all the child layers, and then re-add them one by one as we find they are composited. This is inefficient; it also leaves the layers without a parent over some calls, which I need to fix in order to work on reflections.

I filed bug 31880 to fix GraphicsLayerCACF.

I now understand the “enclosing” part, but I don’t think the name is very good. “Enclosing” doesn’t refer to the children in the list. For one, I’d drop the word “list” and work “GraphicsLayer” into the name. I think this argument is a “list of child GraphicsLayer of the enclosing compositing layer”. Maybe “childGraphicsLayersOfEnclosingLayer”? > + GraphicsLayerList layerChildren; Please move this definition down to where it’s first used. > +// This just updates layer geometry without doing any reparenting. Can you say something like “changing the hierarchy” instead of “doing any reparenting”? I think this is good as-is, so r+, but feel free to post an updated version!
