I think the problem here is, the multiple loadurl() that is done for all intl pages. Frank knows about and has few bugs related to this. Reassigning to him

The multiple loads are correct. As I explained in on 11/09 in bug 17933: But it seems like a dup of bug 17430. When we catch that the page contains a Meta charset tag (which differs from the current charset), we stop the current load and do a reload. And provided more detail in my 11/19 comment in bug 16782: When loading a page (w/out HTTP charset attribute), we use a fallback charset and convert to Unicode accordingly. If the parser detects any type of META tag it will use the observer interface to notify any META handlers. If the META charset handler tag specifies a charset which is different from the fallback, the page must be reloaded, so the data can be correctly converted to Unicode.
With the re-designed webshell, Session History is also getting redesigned. There is going to be a slight change in strategy on which page gets added to SH and which don't. I think it is a good idea to re-visit the intl case then.
