Comment (by stippi):
Thanks for the work! I see two problems with the patch. In the cURL
backend, I think solution is really temporary. As a user, one would want
to have a persistent white list of servers. It should work very much like
how the persistent cookie jar works. I imagine a !HashSet of white listed
servers to replace the single "ignore server" field, and the list needs to
be stored when !WebPositive quits and restored when it launches.
The second problem is with the code in Window: It is a layer breach,
Window should know nothing about the cURL backend. The layering is like
this: !WebCore <-> !WebKit <-> !WebPositive. Everything in !WebPositive
needs to use the !WebKit API only, never any !WebCore stuff directly. You
can look at how getting authentication credentials is handled, it should
be similar. It's a bit more overhead, but it really can't work any other
way.
