khtml patch review

So some web sites (livejournal.com, when you login) use iframes to 
force "popup menus" to conceal plugins like flash. They put the iframe under 
some actual content and set its z-order to -1, causing the iframe to go over 
the actual content.

The patch seems too simple, so I must be missing something :)

lj.html is the test case, move your mouse over the almost invisible 
test "Journal" and a little "popup" menu should appear (if it's not there 
already) - but the text in the popup is obscured. If you remove the iframe 
from the html, then the text in the popup is visible.

I'll backport this to 3.5 once it's considered acceptable for 4.0.
