As far as I checked both of those bugs, there aren't even a Chromium test failing per his patch. So his patch broke something that had not been tested before. Also, given that the fix needs to Chromium port specific, it doesn't seem productive to ask Alexey, who presumably doesn't know much about Chromium port, to come up with a fix for it. And both of those bugs and https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=172721 don't seem to contain any information as to why his patch broke the feature or what kind of changes he needs to make in order to fix it. Someone who knows how form resubmission confirmation works in Chromium needs to help him so that we can fix this regression. - R. Niwa
