Errors thrown when inner frame is not available #966

My site runs a DNS blocker filtering the regex "betsonsport.ru", returning NXDOMAIN for any query. When trying to load content from this domain into a frame, regular browsers stay silent and display white space or a warning sign instead.

HtmlUnit throws an error that cannot be suppressed with all the error silencers. In my view, no connection attempt should be made at all.

Error snippet:
