Description Michael Catanzaro 2023-01-03 06:38:10 PST
So we deprecated WebKitPluginError and removed all the error types from the new API version. But now it's no longer possible to view media like e.g. https://bug-249844-attachments.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=464289. The load fails with WEBKIT_PLUGIN_ERROR_WILL_HANDLE_LOAD. The browser is supposed to ignore it, but can't.

This design is unfortunate and I'm not sure what the best way to fix it would be.
