    <thetext>suspendRedraw/unsuspendRedraw/unsuspendRedrawAll are specified as no-ops but not forceRedraw. In implementations they are all no-ops. Please specify forceRedraw as a no-op to match implementations.

There is non-zero Web content using these (https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msg/blink-dev/bSmQh2GLt_4/R3FXnXrJ7b0J ), so dropping them would cause those pages to break for almost no benefit.

(Presto updates the rendering during script execusion not because of the call to forceRedraw but because Presto has an interuptable JS engine and generally updates rendering when script takes long to run.)</thetext>
