Bug 236915: www/qt5-webengine: Website permissions don't work
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=236915



--- Description ---
Website permissions don't seem to work at all. Whenever a website tries to
request permission to access the microphone, camera, etc... applications that
rely on qt5-webengine exhibit broken behaviour (such as Falkon, but I'm not
filing the report against Falkon because it also happens with other Qt
applications using qt5-webengine).

How to reproduce:
- Open a website that requires permissions with a qt5-webengine based browser
(like Falkon). (Example website: Google's voice web search)

Expected behaviour:
- Browser should ask the user for permission to access microphone/camera/etc.

What happens instead:
- The behaviour is weird, no dialog ever pops up and the website seems to never
be allowed any permission. Sometimes weird behaviour occurs such as Google
displaying "no internet connection".

I'm on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p3 on amd64.
