Bug 133991 – REGRESSION (r167856): Unable to log into HSBC app

• Component: WebCore Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Daniel Bates]

Following <http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/167856> (bug #132224) we disallow "navigation to any URL that is invalid, except for JavaScript URLs, which need not be valid." A byproduct of this decision is that we no longer notify the WebKit client when preparing to navigate to a URL if that URL is invalid. The native portion of the HSBC app on iOS expects to be notified when navigating to any URL, including an invalid URL of the form hsbc://A=a&B=b). But we no longer notify it of such URLs because we disallow navigating to them as of <http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/167856>.

Nit: Usually we just say "DumpRenderTree".  If you change it here, please change it in all the tests and expected results.

Will substitute "DumpRenderTree" for "Dump Render Tree" in the included tests before landing.
