Summary: Adding a RSS Feed cause memory leak → Adding a RSS Feed cause nsGlobalWindow leak
Actually, this looks like potentially bad leak. The leak log indicates that two real windows (and their inner windows) are leaked, so it's not simply leaking the hidden window.

Would be great to get a leak gauge to see which windows are being leaked here.
