Firebug (re-)loads context.window.location.href then re-loads everything
it finds via
  win.document.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("script");

In my simple test values past "?" on the url are sent to the server.

All of this seems wrong: the source ought to be captured when 
onScriptCreated is called. Maybe that is what the code Bandhauer
references does.
