There is a very small typo in this patch.
"topRightRet" should actually be "useragentRet".
There is nothing like topRightRet that the code should refer to.Correct me if I 
am wrong.

There is another typo in the code : The file to be used is cef_context.cc 
instead of context.cc for the modifications described in the patch.

Changing the user agent after it's already been requested may result in 
unexpected behavior (see the comment in webkit/glue/webkit_glue.cc 
SetUserAgent). Would it be acceptable for your use case to set the user agent 
only when CEF is initialized?

yes, I have changed it and set it in the cef project itself where it sets the 
user agent for cef. I just append mine to the chrome one and it works for me.

Wouldnt have an issue with that. I normally set it after init but before
