Its annoying in two ways:
1) Web Console is meant for any type of message/warning/error from web content and not Error Console.
2) Debugging add-ons etc becomes difficult when hundreds of these warnings overflow error console and the meaningful messages are lost in between

This is possibly a duplicate of bug 466533 depending on the solution.

Closing this as its old, may be fixed, and STRs don't show the issue anymore
