Yeah, sounds like this was half-fixed on the server side.  In an ideal
world, such problems would be reported to the user on the client side
in a nicer way (i.e., there is still a chromium bug here), but since
we are not in an ideal world and have no simple test case, I'm not
filing it.

Thanks, that's comforting at least.
