The failure remaining seems to have nothing to do with NodeIterator.

The problem is that this is an <iframe> with a src that fails to load. At some
point, when the load fails, presumably we are supported to fall back and
display the fallback content instead as we do with <object>.

I don't know what the test does to ensure that it doesn't try to run *before*
the <iframe> has tried and failed to load its src, but I'm presuming it does
something. If it doesn't then there could be an Acid3 bug.

Then we have to make sure that the error from the server is treated as a
failure. And make sure we do fallback. As far as I can tell we don't even try
to do fallback for <iframe>. In fact, until now I had been under the impression
that <iframe> was supposed to fall back only for browsers that don't support
<iframe>, not for missing resources.
