JS error I just noticed

[foxfirefey]

I was bopping about the site with Firebug on and happened to notice this error come up on the console:

Permission denied for http://embedded.dreamwidth.net to call method Location.toString on http://foxfirefey.dreamwidth.org.

I don't have the focus at the moment to drill down and see if it's already a bug or connect it to a real problem, so I'm posting here so I don't forget (or somebody else can hunt it down!)

Edit: exor674 tells me this is whatever is being embedded trying to break out of its sandbox! Bad embed, no cookies for you.

I wonder if it's worth tracking which embeds try to break out of their sandboxen? It might be interesting.

It's not necessarily malicious. In this instance, it was YouTube? They're not trying to do anything naughty, I guess they just try to see what URL they're being loaded from if they can, but we block it.

Still interesting from a privacy perspective, even if it's not naughty! I like Google quite a bit, but they don't need to know that much about my locked entries that happen to have YouTube bits in.
