    Bug 774067 - Webkit composer is very slow refresh when typing
    
    Disable the accelerated compositing mode in WebKitGTK+ as we don't need
    it at all in Evolution (definitely not in composer, but right now
    disable it even for preview) and for some video drivers like vboxvideo
    and modesetting there is a big performance hit.
