On some web pages images loaded new background tabs are blurred

Reported by birdfrog...@gmail.com, May 18 2016

Issue description

Example URL:
http://www.npr.org/

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to http://www.npr.org/
2. Open link in new tab (background)
3. Switch to new tab.
Images in tab loaded in background are blurry therefore defeating purpose of loading tabs in background.

What is the expected behavior?
Images should not be blurry. Example of expected behavior: Navigate to same link in existing tab, or in the case of browser I am testing (Open in new tab & VIEW), in which case images are not blurry.

What went wrong?
Images in tabs loaded are blurry, possibly due to issue with the Android Webview component that the Naked Browser app uses.

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A 

Chrome version: Android Webview 39  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 5.1.1
Flash Version: 

PRIMARY ISSUE:
- Using Naked Browser on Android 5.1.1 with Android Webview version 39 (f3de6a81fa-arm) on some websites images on pages invoked by "Open in new tab" are blurry until the page is refreshed, while the same images are clear if browsing directly to the page or if using "Open in new tab & VIEW".

COMPARISON TO WINDOWS PC (for what the dependency on google scripts there might be worth
- In IE on desktop PC the images in question show in lower resolution and then switch to higher resolution a few seconds later, which is not unusual on its own but this looks different and takes longer than usual.

- On same desktop PC, Firefox (and Palemoon) with scripts being blocked show the images as low resolution and do not change them until the folloing scripts are allowed
npr.org 
googletagmanager.com
googletagservices.com 
the googletagservices.com scripts do not get invoked until the npr.org scripts are allowed

Bug reporter: this bug is for a very old version of Android WebView (39). Can you reproduce on the version 50?
