The phising protection forbids getting to the source of the 'bad' pages.
This is quite important, since if I were looking at an attack site, the first one I'd want to see is *what* it is trying to do, ie. view the source.

1) The view source window shouldn't be blocked in the first place (if it can be used in any way as an attack vector, it's a bug).
2) It cannot be overriden (completely blocking access to the source).


Reproducible: Always
