Description Michael Catanzaro 2023-01-06 14:06:50 PST

Let's split this from bug #220117. Disabling the sandbox is very useful for debugging purposes. But the name of the environment variable should be much scarier than the current WEBKIT_FORCE_SANDBOX=0. My original suggestion was WEBKIT_ALLOW_HACKING_ME=1, but Carlos Garcia and Patrick don't like this. How about WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX_THIS_IS_DANGEROUS=1?

More possible variants of this:

WEBKIT_DANGEROUS_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1
WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX_DANGEROUS=1
WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX_DANGEROUSLY=1
