Bug 36061 – Make FrameLoader easier to test

• Status: NEW
• Component: Page Loading

[Adam Barth]

Our test coverage of FrameLoader is kind of spotty because it's hard to write tests.  In this bug I'll try to write some tests for the trickier bugs we've been missing out.  In the process, I'll hopefully build some better test infrastructure.

Here are the untested functional changes from the past year.  The more interesting ones are marked with a star.

The main areas of difficult testing appear to be related to page cache and history items (or at least those are the main limitations we've hit in the past two years).
