--- Comment #20 from Darin Adler <darin at apple.com> ---
The real point is that these call out to the app, which could then retain the WebView. The app has no way of knowing that the WebView is not already retained.

I suggest we find a way to change the semantics of the WebView in the future so that if a client doesn’t explicitly call close the WebViewWillCloseNotification is not sent, and the unload event is not sent to the webpage either.

Then this bug could still come up, but only for old clients, and eventually we can phase the behavior out entirely.
