The code with the comment was added in 2003 under rdar://problem/3106525 by cblu.

The situation where a null webview is returned for the delegate method seems to happen only in Mac Mail, not sure why that situation exists (rdar://problem/5025212). This is the situation the test is ensuring does not cause a crash. It doesn't arise for other ports within WebKit code as far as I can tell since there doesn't appear to be a situation in which WebCore will fail to create a page for the targeted request.
