https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55624

           Summary: Frame tear-down should happen later
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Frames
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: bdakin at apple.com


There is a comment in HTMLFrameOwnerElement::willRemove() that says:

 // FIXME: It is unclear why this can't be moved to removedFromDocument()
 // this is the only implementation of willRemove in WebCore!

If the contents of HTMLFrameOwnerElement::willRemove() were moved to HTMLFrameOwnerElement::removedFromDocument(), then bugs such as https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55469 would not require strange DRT work-arounds. However, moving this tear-down to be later is not trivial as it causes other crashes in the tests.

We should understand this better, and we should fix it.
