I'll not bore you with the gory details but there is a big discussion on the bugzilla entry for this as to what expected behaviour should be. A lot of sites use what is called cross site verification as they use multiple hosts for their sites (e.g. look at ebay they use loads) and if the browser didn't do cross site forms then you would be constantly prompted with warnings as it moves through the site.

Firefox can disable cross site verification(and form) but then users will start wingeing that ebay(and others) stop working or become such a pain that it spoild the sites. so what would you prefer?

If can post the link to the bugzilla entry if anyone is interested in teh nitty gritty,
