The current height of the WebView, not the height of the content - which is 
smaller.

I did just locate a solution that does work, but I am not really happy with it 
because it seems more complicated then it should be. Check out:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2675244/how-to-resize-webview-according-to-its-content
Note, it does not appear to be necessary to disable the scrolling and it is 
necessary to first resize the WebView to a small height as mentioned by Miraaj 
in a comment on the answer.

Now, one problem i am having with this solution is that I see a flicker with 
the WebView shrinking and then growing larger.

It really does seem like there should be a way to ask for the height of the 
content regardless of the current height of the WebView.

If there is not, I will probably go ahead and file a bug.
