------- Additional Comments from Darin Adler <darin at apple.com>
This is one of those cases where a function by function comment in the change
log would make it more clear why your changes are correct.

m_frame->domWindow()->navigator()->optionalGeolocation())
> +	   m_frame->domWindow()->navigator()->optionalGeolocation()->stop();

If we’re calling m_frame->domWindow() you should not check it for 0. The code
can either call existingDOMWindow or we can remove the null check.

Is there a guarantee that no new geolocation activity can start after a frame
stops loading? What guarantees that? There is not enough explanation here,
either in change log or in comments, to make clear why this code is correct.

review- for the moment because of this one issue and one question
