User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: 

The natural way to develop a chrome is: 
edit file(s); 
start mozilla with the chrome; 
and test. 
 
However if there is an onload() event for the main  
window, it is not trigger if any chrome files were 
modified since Mozilla was last started. 
 
Stopping Mozilla and restarting solves the problem  
everytime. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. stop mozilla 
2. edit a chrome file which has an onload() event on the window 
3. start mozilla and notice that the onload event was not called 
4. restart mozilla and notice that the onload now works 
 
Actual Results:  
The onload event is triggered 

Expected Results:  
The onload event is triggered whether the chrome files  
have been modified or not since the last time Mozilla was started.
