Hello again!
Here's one more stupid little patch, for a Cross-Site Scripting bug in IMP's
HTML mail display system:
<frameset rows="1,*">
<frame src="java scripT:alert(57)">
<frame src="http://www.horde.org/imp/">
</frameset>
(the regular expressions in the code match literal spaces but not space
entities like  )
My patch (against the 3.2.1 release) should fix this problem.

// Rule #1: If we have a semicolon, it's deterministically detectable
// and fixable, without introducing collateral damage.
