           Summary: shouldUsePluginDocument() needs to be respected when a
                    document is created
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit BlackBerry
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mfeil at rim.com


The client needs to be able to specify certain mime types that should be treated as a plugin no matter what. This will allow the "missing plugin" icon to be displayed in those cases where the plugin dll cannot be loaded.

For example, Adobe Flashplayer swf files have a mime type of "application/x-shockwave-flash". Without an explicit call to shouldUsePluginDocument() in DOMImplementation::createHTMLDocument() we end up with web pages displaying swf binary as gibberish HTML (BlackBerry) or downloading the .swf file immediately (Chrome). This fix is specifically targeted at plugin mime types referenced as the src property of iframes.
