Ryan Baxter resolved SHINDIG-1669.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Unresolved

This ended up not being a problem for me as we were able to work around it in 
the container.  However I would like to come back to this at a later date to 
come up with a better solution to the problem in Shindig.
                
> Navigating to URLs in the common container has no indication of success or

> When you call commoncontainer.navigateUrl if the URL cannot be reached the 
> caller has no way of knowing if the URL was navigated successfully or not.  
> To solve this we make a head request to the URL we are navigating to and add 
> a callback to the API.
> It is important to note that we will not be caching the response of the head 
> request.  While this could possibly give us better performance we have no way 
> of guaranteeing the server will still be up next time and everything may 
> fail.  This is different from the gadget case where we have the gadget XML 
> cached on the server.
