Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 To clarify further: the point of the demo is to try to answer Georg's
 question in comment:7.

 But under normal usage, we wouldn't be using a "popupshown" listener to
 modify the `image` attribute. Instead, the `image` attribute is copied
 from the `tab` to the `menuitem`. The menuitem should normally cause no
 extra image downloads, because the `tab` has already caused the image to
 be added to the cache, isolated to the appropriate first party.

 Absent this patch, the `menuitem` does not find the image in the cache,
 because it is using -No-First-Party-. So it downloads the image again over
 the -No-First-Party- circuit.
