   I don't think there's a way to make this happen through the WebKit API, so I
don't think it's possible for a "WebKit embedder" to get into this situation.
Perhaps you're talking about someone who is making changes to WebCore/WebKit
itself? If so, seeing the patches that are running into this situation would
make this whole discussion much clearer.
