Re: text/sandboxed-html

this is a great idea! but I think that legacy browsers will prompt a
<download file> dialog if they dont support it.

why not putting the sandboxed URL inside the sandbox attribute? anyway, it's
just a suggestion, the new mime type is a great idea, now sandbox makes
sense!

<iframe sandbox="http://thesite.com/thesandboxed.html"
sandboxsomething="no-scripts no-frames">
