Bug 33963 – [Qt] Nothing happens when trying to load non-existing HTTPS page

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WORKSFORME
• Component: Layout and Rendering

Try to open non-existing page using https scheme.
e.g. https://cwrt.fi

Expected: There should be error notification, e.g. "Network error
(dns_unresolved_hostname) or something similar which tells user that page
cannot be found.

Actual: Nothing happens. Same page stays visible which was before tried to
opened non-existing https-page.

QtLauncher: Reproducible
Safari: Not Reproducible

With r55658 on Linux: The URL is changed to "about:blank" and the page says "Host not found", i.e. works for me.
