           Summary: <link rel="apple-touch-icon"> tag is not honored on
                    CNN.com, workflowy.com etc
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: aruslan at chromium.org

No apple-touch-icons are fetched (and, hence, used) for CNN.con, workflowy.com etc.
The same holds for apple-touch-icon-precomposed.

Test steps:

Load http://aruslan.me/t1237621jsa/t.html
    <html><head>
    <link href="http://www.cnn.com/favicon.ie9.ico" rel="Shortcut Icon" type="image/x-icon" />
    <link href="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.e/img/3.0/global/misc/apple-touch-icon.png" rel="apple-touch-icon" type="image/png" />
    <title>Title</title>
    </head><body>Body.</body></html>

Observed results:
1. favicon.ie9.ico is fetched and shown correctly.
2. apple-touch-icon is NOT fetched; instead, the request is made to the website to fetch "default" fallback apple-touch-icon.png.

Expected results:
1. favicon.ie9.ico is fetched and shown (no changes).
2. apple-touch-icon from CDN is fetched and shown.
