Blink, Chromiums rendering engine, based on WebKit, already uses skia right?
Why not just import all that code?

Blink split from WebKit a decade ago, I doubt they still have enough in common for it to be worth merging features.

Particularly with Blink being entirely reliant on Chromium for multiprocess, whereas WebKit handles multiprocess itself. This was actually one of the issues that spurred Blink’s forking and entails significantly different architectures.
