I will just add: DRI3 plus the modesetting graphics driver (mandatory
for new Intel processors) plus accelerated compositing is known-broken
in WebKit; we unfortunately cannot support that combination. As we are
going to make accelerated compositing mandatory in WebKit in the near
future, my understanding is that will break all apps using WebKit for
users with new computers. Only known solution is LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE=1.
This is your obligatory "I told you so" for when the complaints start
rolling in half a year from now.

This is https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85064

I'm concerned that we may have enabled DRI3 before it was fully-baked,
if it's known to be broken with Firefox, WebKit, LibreOffice....
