>The OP's scenario is being curious how Chromium does something: so it suffices to find the relevant snippet and then copy it elsewhere. The Chromium code is assumed to be already working and does not need debugging.

To clear myself of any wrongdoing in regards to copyright :) They had a very nice comment explaining how the workaround works, and we used a different image manipulation library, so I couldn't, and didn't, copy it as is.

So not only it was easy to find the workaround in their huge codebase, they also explained it well so I could replicate it in our codebase from scratch.
