Description Philippe Normand 2023-07-04 12:07:28 PDT

Something like this maybe?

gchar* webkit_web_view_runtime_environment_informations(WebKitWebView*)

Any more suitable name?

the return value would basically be the JSON built for webkit://gpu serialized to a string. Or maybe we could return it as some JSON-glib type?

It's not a property of the web view, though, is it?

I wouldn't depend on json-glib. Just returning a string is fine.

How about webkit_get_debugging_information()?

The current GPU page requires a WebView, to get the hw accel policy and other things.
