Yeah, we can fix this, but we have to it carefully.  When you go down this
path, you end up with javascript URLs in the back/forward list, etc, and you
have to be careful only to run them once and not to introduce security
problems.

When Firefox creates a document with a javascript URL, they actually represent
the document's URL internally as a "wyciwyg" URL (what you cache is what you
get).  That why when you return to the document (say with back/forward) you
know the result of evaling the JavaScript without having to do it again (and
you remember the right security context).
