After loaded for the first time, I can access singed scripts from a non signed
page. Once I refresh the broser, I can't access them any more - get Error:
uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property...
The signed section of the application works fine within itself.
I am using a test certificate

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.load an application that has both non signed and signed pages
2.Refresh the broser (F5)
3.Try to access signed script from the non signed script

Actual Results:  
Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property ...

Expected Results:  
Execute the script, like before refresh

Fixing this bug is very important, since the end user of the application will
not know why things are not working any more and will stop using the application
altogether.

Why is this in search component? I don't think it has to do anything with it.
Over to
-> JavaScript engine
(not sure about that but it has something to do with scripting and security)
