Show the result of getText() on click, which differs from what was set

Browser.getText() is a reprensentation of the HTML but not the source. We would need such a method.

Attached is a test case that shows that when setting a simple content like:
"<html><body></body></html>"
... when calling getText() we end up with:
"<HTML><HEAD></HEAD>\n<BODY></BODY></HTML>"

This looks like WONTFIX for me. Grant?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
