(Whiteboard: [console-1]) 

The ReportUseOfDeprecatedMethod() in nsXMLDocument.cpp is used to report the warning that tells web developers to stop using document.load(), which is a deprecated method from an old DOM 3 LS spec.

The sourceName URI used for the nsIScriptError message points to the previous URI of the document object, before loading the new URI. This prevents the Web Console code from associating the warning message with the originating web page (tab).

Until bug 603706 is fixed, we should perhaps find a work around. Not sure how important is this message.
