Summary
Deprecate the attribute boolean webkitImageSmoothingEnabled on CanvasRenderingContext2D.
webkitImageSmoothingEnabled is true per default, setting it to false disables interpolation.
Motivation
It's an alias of the unprefixed imageSmoothingEnabled.
Compatibility Risk
Content that sets webkitImageSmoothingEnabled but not imageSmoothingEnabled will get interpolated.
Alternative implementation suggestion for web developers
Use imageSmoothingEnabled.
Usage information from UseCounter
https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/267
That's ~0.015%, similar to the unprefixed imageSmoothingEnabled:

Requesting approval to remove too?
No, let it be deprecated for at least one release.
