           Summary: spoof navigator.vendor
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.buy.com
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ra5ul at comcast.net


buy.com, for example, has disabled their shopping cart box (top right of page)
exclusively in safari.  i'm not sure why (they didn't respond to my queries),
since enabling it manually and testing shows no errors.

they're using navigator.vendor to identify safari.  i was thinking of a simple
fix to allow spoofing, like:
