I want to pitch a related thread I stumbled about a year ago —
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485941  Stack overflow
using overly-deep XML tree (DoS).

I was concerned about JS generating deep nodes which still crashes my
recent Firefox — silently, no questions asked.

This seems to be a case for an improved user experience also in with FF too.
