Comment:
Regarding &quot;3. If the result of executing the script is void (there is no
return value), then the URL must be treated in a manner equivalent to an HTTP
resource with an HTTP 204 No Content response.&quot; - nowhere is specified what
exactly should be done in case of HTTP 204 response during navigation. Should
we abort navigation attempt and stay with the active document? Should we
revert to about:blank? Throw exception?

    <thetext>The &quot;Resource handling&quot; step of the Navigation algorithm, plus the HTTP spec, seem to define 204 completely. What more should it say?</thetext>
