[Bug 1466670] Re: WebGL Not Working

I see no benefit in attacking his decision. He knows of the issue and
our desire to have web gl at least be able to be turned on via chrome
flags. The resolution of the core cause is probably outside the scope of
the chromium project. Linux has never had great wide spread graphics
card support and performance.

Chad, can we get a firm commitment to either a long term resolution or
an ability to opt into web gl moving forward?

Thank you.
