I haven't tested this in a while, so I might be misremembering, but Gecko has magic to rewrite all JavaScript references to the old document to point to the new document. I don't know whether that magic is required by web compatibility, but I bet it is and I don't think we want to introduce more of that magic into WebKit. (We do something similar for Window today, but Window is a unique snowflake.)
