And, wow, it's a pretty massive leak in Safari, where images are much  
more likely to be hefty and multiple as compared to an Adium message  
window.  Try opening a couple windows in Safari, then closing them,  
then repeating the process a few times, while watching Activity Monitor.

Add OmniObjectMeter and you can see that almost all that memory is in  
"Anonymous Data", most of which is allocated by WebImageData, which  
itself is retained by WebImageRenderer objects.
