Ahh -- trick question!

There is NO "Javascript security model" so Netscape cannot have
designed it...

...

Seriously, Javascript was the single worst thing that ever happened to
browsers (and the only really stupid, bad thing that is not squarely on
MS' shoulders) and permanently opened the whole, stupid "active
content" can-o-worms...
