WebGL context lost dialog forces user to click "Reload" button on it

Reported by chauv...@gmail.com, Apr 20 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.117 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Handle event `webglcontextlost` in JavaScript code, call `event.preventDefault()`
2. Make the WebGL context lost happen (My method is to open a lot of tabs playing WebGL to overload the GPU)

What is the expected behavior?
1. There should be NO dialog appears, saying: "Rats! WebGL hit a snag.", with two buttons "Ignore" and "Reload".
2. Executing "document.location.reload()" should restore the context, just equivalent to pressing "Reload" on the context-loss dialog.
3. Afterall, refreshing a page should refresh everything of the tab back to initial condition, including the WebGL context

What went wrong?
1. Context-loss dialog still appears even though `event.preventDefault()` is called in `webglcontextlost` listener.
2. User is forced to manually click "Reload" button on context-loss dialog (The reload button next to address box doesn't work).

Did this work before? No
