After you visit www.open.gov.uk/lcd/ and then load a different page, you will
notice that the window.status field at the bottom of the browser does not clear.
It keeps the scrolling text message from www.open.gov.uk/lcd/ .

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.visit www.open.gov.uk/lcd/
2.visit any other site
3.check the status bar at bottom of browser
4.Keep visiting other sites

Actual Results:  window.status did not clear
Confirmed on Linux 2000080108, although for me it doesn't continue scrolling, it
just displays the text that was there when I left the site.. Changing OS/Plat to
All. Assigning to Javascript Engine where it seems to belong.
