 There are several ways to get Tor Browser crashed due to missing
 mitigations while dealing with overly deep nested XML tags (see:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485941 for an example). For
 Mozilla this is just annoying but depending on the circumstances we might
 come to a different conclusion due to our different threat model.

 We should try to come up with something that handles those cases more
 gracefully and in a less dangerous way.
