Updated Steps to Reproduce with a partially reduced page:

1.  Download the attachment "clicktoflash_plugin_reduction" from this bug
report.

2.  Open the zip file attachment, build the project, and install the plugin in
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ .

3.  Open WebKit.  Navigate to http://homepage.mac.com/simx/cnnvideo3.html . 
Note that in a few seconds, the Obama video loads and plays.

4.  Quit WebKit.

5.  Move the reduced ClickToFlash plugin from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ to
~/Library/Interent Plug-Ins/.

6.  Open WebKit again.  Navigate to http://homepage.mac.com/simx/cnnvideo3.html
again.  Note that this time, the Obama video never loads and doesn't play. 
Note that the only difference between step 3 and step 6 is the location of the
WebKit plugin on the hard drive.
