Crash when exiting online banking with other tab open. I suspect that the exit
button wants ot close the windows with Javascript. I allow all JavaScript except
hiding the status bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to https://banking.migrosbank.ch/demo.html
2. Click the "Eingabe übermitteln" button
3. In the opening window click "Weiter"
4. In the window where you can mamage the demo account click Ctrl-T to open a
new tab.
5. Switch back to the tab with the demo account.
6. Click "Exit"



Actual Results:  
7. Watch mozilla crash.

Expected Results:

WFM using BuildID 2003052608 on RH Linux 9.0
Clicking on the end session button closes down mozilla but doesn't crash it.

> closes down mozilla but doesn't crash it.

That's the behaviour I've seen on the trunk builds (a bug on it's own I, already
in bugzilla if I remember correctly). On the branch builds I've crashed.
Unfortunately I don't have the possibility to test it with new branch builds at
the moment. Probably at the weekend. Ian, was yours a branch build?

Yes, the crash has gone in the 1.4 branch. Morphing this bug to a "don't quit
mozilla with javascript" bug.

This code get's called when clicking the "Beenden"-button and quits mozilla and
*all* it's windows, but only if you have another tab opened in the window with
the "Beenden"-button. Else it just closes the window itself.

I'm not sure about the component this should go into.

function end_session()
{
 top.bottom.main.location.href = "net-bin/exit.net";
}

The page and its javascript code have changed and I haven't seen any javascript related closing bugs lately. Changing to WorksForMe as this seems to be the most reasonable resolution.
