Comment 4 Boris Zbarsky 2013-06-08 02:20:46 UTC 
Is there a separate bug on the fact that images also need a form owner and that the image part of this needs to use that, not just the descendant check?
Comment 5 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2013-06-17 22:21:50 UTC 
I don't think so. Please do file a bug on this. (I'd never even considered that images might be affected by the 'form owner' concept. That's very sad if so.)
Comment 6 Boris Zbarsky 2013-06-18 02:06:07 UTC 
All this stuff is sad.

The other thing is covered by bug 22382.
