I think form submission should be changed to work the same way as other location changes, sharing the "redirection timer" with the rest.

NavigationScheduler::scheduleFormSubmission()

calls

schedule(adoptPtr(new ScheduledFormSubmission()))

Does this mean the submission is using the "redirection timer"?  It seems like the infinite loop is because on each new load the body's onload handler is called.  However, you are not stuck in this loop, I can click on another link and navigate away from the looping page.
