There are two factors at play here: in shipping Safari, sitting the document
title via JavaScript to a non-breaking space (either via document.write or
document.title) results in no change to the displayed title though
document.title does reflect the change to the title.  In ToT we respect the
change and display the new title.  This explains why the bug is not visible in
shipping Safari.  The second factor is that if we encounter a <title> tag, set
the document title via JavaScript, then encounter a second <title> tag we will
set the document title to the contents of the second <title> tag.  In Firefox
the title remains at what was set via JavaScript.  This explains why the bug
isn't visible in Firefox.

I'll prepare a patch that makes our behaviour match Firefox.
