I was about to file a similar bug regarding identical behavior with MJPG
streams.  I am trying to switch an image's source between a static and motion
jpeg file to save bandwidth when the video is not needed, but no matter what I
do to it, short of reloading the page, it continues to load the MJPG data
stream once it's been requested once.

This video stream may sometimes be black, but you will still see ~100KB/s in
the activity monitor.  This test case shows that the MJPG stream continues
downloading after switching the src to a static image and even after deleting
the image's DOM node.
