(In reply to paul vixie from comment #4)
I don't think that's a concern any longer, is it?
The reason I'm even reporting this as a bug (and not simply leaving it to
browser vendors to fix since that's how this surfaced now) is how it comple=
tely
blindsides anyone who might come across it, and I would not be surprised if=
 a
plethora of new attack vectors - having nothing to do with browsers - crop =
up
in the near future.=20

I don't have a firm understanding of how bad it might be, but it might be w=
orth
a security advisory. Then again, I might be seeing ghosts in broad daylight.

(Well, a ghost it is, I guess..)
