Apologizes for the chaotic rhythm of publication. So here is a raw version.
Changes of the week
Everything mentioned below should work with the latest nightly available at the moment (38100).
Multiline Inputs (35739)
Before this commit, WebKit was only sending the first line of an input field. Now, a multiline text (entered with copy and paste) will keep all the text. The carriage return will be replaced by spaces. This matches other browsers behavior.

Now, the profiler is disabled by default. A new activation screen is therefore necessary. A similar screen was added for the profiler too.

A lot of applications could benefit from knowing the user position and offer local services. So an API is under development at the W3C : Geolocation API. There is a clear usecase with the iPhone for example. This functionality can't be tested in the nightlies at the moment.
Multi-file upload (37863)
HTML5 introduces the collisions with the Emacs style shortcuts in Mac OS. The shorcut was changed to Ctrl+Opt. But this caused new problems with VoiceOver. So the intermediate solution is now : Ctrl+Opt without VoiceOver and Ctrl with VoiceOver.
