HTML-on-a-prim kills sims

Well, the new HTML-on-a-prim feature in Second Life has one little tiny, teensy little problem. You can crash simulators with it. Sharp-eyed Gwyneth Llewelyn discovered, rather by accident, that you can reproducibly, reliably, and immediately crash a Second Life simulator by setting parcel media properties incorrectly.

The details are all filed in the public JIRA, and this one's definitely a showstopper. Get your voting fingers ready, and we strongly suspect an emergency fix to go out on this one really quickly. This feature should have gotten more time for public testing on the beta grid.

Like any at all, for example.
