OK, I think we can live with it in future Safari.

Now we just need to deal with that other issue, Safari has done it this way for 8 years so there’s a good chance sites have Safari-specific code paths depending on the old behavior. And this goes even more for things like Dashboard. So ... we have to find out if that’s true and figure out what to do about it.

This comes up often in the WebKit project, so there is some understanding about how to make changes like this. We need some time and some testing to find out if we can just completely drop the old behavior or if we need it in some places.
