Details

The pageshow listener that updates the character set menu, RSS feeds, and some CtP stuff (like re-showing the CtP PopupNotification if we've browsed back in history to a page with a CtP'd plugin), only listens for pageshow events on the root document of the selected browser.

It filters out subdocument pageshow events. I'm not 100% sure that we want to filter out those events. For example, if a subdocument gets navigated back in its history such that it's showing a CtP'd plug-in... shouldn't we re-spawn the CtP PopupNotification? (or perhaps we do, I haven't checked... but how is that happening if we're only listening to pageshow's from the root document?)

This is a follow-up from bug 1058164.
