GTK and WPE ports only support using the GPU process for WebGL for now.
We plan to add support for media and layers rendering at some point,
but we don't have a specific plan yet. However, the GPU process
implementation requires a sharing buffer mechanism (similar to
IOSurface, I think) that is not available in all the platform we
current currently support. So, we would need to keep the option to
render in the web process even if it's disabled by default and only
used on systems where DMABuf (or similar) is not supported.
