Currently we rely on the test-coder providing the "AndWait" hint, to flag 
that the action will cause a reload.  Yes, it's annoying ... but it's tricky 
to fix in a portable manner.  IE provides an "onBeforeUnload" event that we 
could use to automatically instigate a "wait".  Firefox supports it too, but 
it's a non-standard event, and so has no real hope of working on 
Safari/Konqueror.
