The bug only occurs in accelerated compositing (OpenGL) mode, which
is
currently only used when necessary to support a particular web page
(e.g. GitHub commit diffs, or search results on DuckDuckGo). Ongoing
work is to make accelerated compositing mode mandatory and use it on
all web pages. Once this work lands, modesetting driver users will
need
to disable DRI3 in order to practically use WebKit.
Once again goes to show how problematic it is to use web rendering
stacks from browsers in other places: Now we have an initial setup tool
that depends on GL+DRI3 working just because it needs to render two
entries in a webpage :-(
