So why not show one of these legitimate examples instead of the overused window popup 
script?

It would just be easier to ascertain the level of severity if an actual DoS string or

I am sure there are a lot of forms that can be a victim of a xss string, but how many 
of them can actually be used for anything useful (from an attacker point of view)?
