ok apparently this isn't 100% reproducable. i'll try to track down more complete
steps, however given that caillon experienced it, i assert that i wasn't
hallucinating.

Attachment: Stack trace

Sicking asked me to upload this stack -- this is in nsRange::SetStart()

We're failing here:

  if (!nsContentUtils::CanCallerAccess(aParent)) {
    return NS_ERROR_DOM_SECURITY_ERR;
  }

I don't fully understand what's happening here, but my guess is that the
js-stack isn't fully set up so we end up comparing against the wrong url.

It also seems that this doesn't happen on all pages, probably only ones
containing javascript. It happens for me on http://bugzilla.mozilla.org but not
on http://www.mozilla.org

oh, and the DOM does show up, at least for me. But the exception is worrying anyway

Note that the only problem mentioned in this bug that is related to bug 156452
is the fact that an exception is thrown. Both the missing nodeinfo view and the
extra DOM-tree is from something else (and might even be by design for all i know)

It's not by design.

I don't think this bug was meant to be nsbeta1+. DOM Inspector is not shipped by
Netscape as far as I know.
