Leaking on shutdown may not be much of a problem, in an application that saves shutdown for just prior to terminating the process/application. However, the web control can be instantiated and destroyed repeatedly while browsing several different web pages.

The Mozilla control may be instantiated multiple times, but XPCOM currently can only be instantiated once per process. If you try to shutdown and reinitialize XPCOM all kinds of bad things can happen (and I think we actually prevent that with a static guard). So this isn't really a big issue.
