Bug Description

When requesting a capture of a webview using QQuickItem::grabToImage (when this works, see bug #1452998), the resulting image includes a black rectangle at the top of the webview where the chrome would be. See attached capture for an example.

We need a way to discard this part of the capture.

With a custom QObject inserted in the scene, written in C++ and that calls QQuickItem::grabToImage() on the WebView, I am able to get back a QImage which I can then manipulate to crop the black rectangle. As a bonus, I can also increase the compression factor when saving as a JPEG, thus saving disk space and loading time.

This appears to have fixed itself, somehow. Note that there is still bug #1467276 though.
