1. Changing a setting in one window.internals.settings object affects all frames in a page, but does not work across secondary windows. This is inconsistent.

2. If a test navigates to a different URL (with waitUntilDone/notifyDone), settings are restored from last document's InternalSettings instead of first one's, so changes made in first one just leak to future tests.

3. Code design is not very clear. Settings are per-page, yet many Internals methods take Document, Frame or a global context.
