 Sandboxed iframes support loading content in a separate unique origin
 (when the {{{allow-same-origin}}} is not set). This solves many (not all)
 of the problems described in #615, for browsers that support it: Chrome,
 IE10+, and soon Firefox 17+.

 Note that if we sandbox by default, that will affect the ability to save
 the raw version of files with in-browser-viewable MIME types served from
 Tahoe (because it will also save the framing page). To mitigate that we
 also need #827.
