Comment #12 on issue 4583 by [EMAIL PROTECTED]: URL masquerading: wrong  
URL shown in the status bar when mouse hover over a link
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4583

I agree with Ian.  We shouldn't change our behavior here.  The status bar  
is not part
of the browser's security user interface.  There is no way to make  
it "secure."  We
shouldn't go down this path.

For example, what if the onclick cancels the event and then calls  
setTimeout that
navigates the page by setting window.location?  Are we to disallow that?   
What if the
click calls window.open to make a new tab and then closes the original  
tab?  Etc,
etc.
