<div>
<pre>WebKit emits an "onbeforeload" event when various link operations are conducted. In <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed"
title="RESOLVED FIXED - CSP: Remove stubs for dynamically-added favicons (via link rel="icon")"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=153151">Bug 153151</a> I stopped the old (unused) behavior of notifying clients of new favicon updates. However, I retained the code that emitted an 'onbeforeload' event.
We should not emit this non-standard event for these dynamic favicon loads, since we do not support this feature, and should not advertise that we are performing a load that we are actually ignoring.
This breaks one test:
webarchive/test-link-rel-icon-beforeload.html
To keep things working properly, I intend to switch the link to a 'subresource' (which still emits the event) to keep the test functioning properly.
I will rename it to
webarchive/test-link-rel-subresource-beforeload.html</pre>
