Details
(Whiteboard: [necko-would-take])
STEPS:
use any data URL in HTML or in URL bar that has invalid parameters.
OBSERVED
data: will fail to processes
EXPECTED
some kind of error notification.
I think a dialog would be overkill, but based on my experience from reviewing
the RFC and writing a test suite, data: URLs do not give any feedback when they
fail to process.
It would be nice to see a couple basic error messages for the following conditions:
"No data" - common because you need a comma after parameters, before the data.
"Decode failure" - from bad base64 encoded data.
"Character set unavailable" - for incorrect or missing character set references
in the "media "section.
