Some pages can freeze Firefox when Karma Blocker is enabled

Description

Not with the default rule set, but with the rule set I actually use, at a minimum, this page will freeze Firefox, requiring a hard kill, when loaded:

This is the smallest complete rule set that continues to exhibit this behavior:

[Settings]
threshold=2

[Group]
name="Third-party"
score=1
rule=$thirdParty==true

[Group]
name="Keyword: ad"
score=1
rule=$url=~'\bad'
rule=$url=~'ads?\b'

When navigating to this page, nothing appears in the Karma Blocker monitor window. When it is happening, Firefox has the CPU pegged. This must be some sort of infinite loop.

Looks like it's this recently introduced line:

fields.node.setAttribute('kabl', gKablCollapseMarker);

Removing it stops this behavior.
