The problem is that the content check includes the actual webpage data.
Trying to stuff one webpage inside another can result in a pretty
awful looking status page. Doing that with two or more webpages is
just too bizarre to actually work.

Yes, I know you can probably get it right by using HTML <DIV> or
<OBJECT> tags to embed one page inside another. Unfortunately, not
all browser can handle those.
