New issue 7076 by roguekheldar: Unhelpful Error 105 page
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7076

Chrome Version       : 2.0.158.0

Other browsers tested:
      Safari 3:OK
     Firefox 3:OK
          IE 7:FAIL

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to URL that causes Error 105 (net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED) e.g. a
random long domain name

What is the expected result?
The browser should be able to tell the name of the requested domain, for
example firefox and safari both name the domain requested as the problem
responsible, and safari offers a search bar autofilled with the name of the
domain.

What happens instead?
Chrome's message is "The web page at null might be temporarily down or it
may have moved permanently to a new web address." which does not name the
domain and is potentially confusing.  It offers no course of action other
than refreshing the page, where it would be more helpful to suggest that a
spelling error may have been responsible - by displaying what was actually
requested by the user.
