In order to avoid flickering when opening a new tab we have to create an API to update background pages without flickering.
I created a test branch rotation-test and recorded this video to show the problem:
When we will have api to rotate new tab background images smoothly without white flash then we can update native side to call rotation instead of creation new tab every time in https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/16078. This will also have a positive effect on the speed of opening new tabs for the user.
Steps to Reproduce
Build rotation-test branch
Call wireApiEventsToStore() in console
See white flash of brackground on redraw
Actual result:
white flash
Expected result:
no white flash, new picture painted over old one smoothly
