Description Simon Fraser (smfr) 2009-07-03 13:30:34 PDT 
If a page creates an Audio element in JS, and tells it to play, then that only works the first time the page is loaded. On Reload, the audio fails to play.

It seems that handling such cases with ActiveDOMObject machinery could be more performant than running a long list of checks on each node with a wrapper.
