Test case

This test case intentionally floods the browser with far too many timers while attempting to animate a blue box. The box animation is driven by requestAnimationFrame, so it only moves in chromium or Firefox.  In Safari try interacting with the text area and notice how crappy it is.   The framerate on this test page with ToT WebKit is below 20fps (around 17fps on my box, it depends on the exact timer scheduling) even though the animation logic itself is quite cheap.
