This isn't super-surprising.  WebArchives have this problem in general.  They
save a snapshot of the page - including the DOM that has often dynamically been
changed by scripts - at the time the archive is created.  

But when you reopen one, it runs the onload handlers again, which often
replicate content.

I'm sure we have various bugs that allude to this, don't know if there's a
specific umbrella, and don't know if we've even theorized any possible
solutions.  I do know it's been around forever :)
