Description Andy Estes 2014-02-14 17:42:04 PST 
The current content filtering implementation suffers from the following problems:

- Error pages aren't displayed correctly when a non-HTML document is blocked by the filter.
- The filter performs synchronous XPC messaging during loading.
- The filter sometimes keeps up to two additional copies of the main resource in memory.
- The filter is untestable from a WebKit perspective.

This bug tracks improving the content filter by addressing these problems.
