Jonas/Drivers: I think its a wanted bug. Was not able to get this more then 2 nsGlobalWindows Leaking and its a specific scenario. On the other side, this might be a popular extension for developers.

Steps to reproduce:
-> Install the JavaScript Debugger https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/216
-> Open the JavaScript Debugger Console 
-> Close Firefox with the Console open
--> Leak

This bug does not meet the new maintenance release (1.9.0.x) criteria (security, stability, regression from maintenance release).
