###!!! ASSERTION: Unexpected PopupSetFrame: 'nsIRootBox::GetRootBox(mPresShell) && nsIRootBox::GetRootBox(mPresShell)->GetPopupSetFrame() == newFrame', file /Users/jruderman/central/layout/base/nsCSSFrameConstructor.cpp, line 5179

I think this is a regression from within the last 2 days.
Sort of, yes.  This is a regression from bug 480979.  That said, it points out a real problem that existed before that.  After the hbox is inserted, the frame tree near the root is:

Viewport
  HTMLScroll(html)
    [snipped scrollbars and scrollcorners]
    Canvas(html)
      DocElementBox(hbox)

That's very much broken.

So there are all sorts of ways I could silence the assert and go back to the old behavior here, I think.  But ideally we'd just get the frame tree right...  That basically means removing everything except the ViewportFrame when the root element is removed, and recreating those frames when it's readded.  roc, do you know why we don't do that now?
See also bug 78070, where we discuss the same thing.  Shall we just fix it?  roc, you want to do it, or should I take a stab?
As part of doing this, or a prereq, I should consider getting rid of ReconstructDocElementHierarchyInternal.  See bug 480880 comments.
