Comment 6 for bug 1502675

Hi,
maybe "unhidden" is the right word if it describes an in app "hiding" of
the webview - by another page in the stack for example.
I am not into how this is handled, but it sounds like we talk about the
same effect ;-).
A quick fix could be just to not paint it black but e.g. in background
color as this would increase user experience recognizably for states
where it takes a while to get contents back (creating a new one?!).

Looking forward to your improvement.
