After some experimentation/thought I think it best to delete this applet test.

It is supposed to be a manual test but is missing the manual keyword so
as far as I can tell it has never been usefully run. Except perhaps a few times
when first being verified.
When I run it in jtreg a window popups up, disappears and the test is passed
Contradicting instructions in the test that tell you it has to be manual because
you need to run it *in the browser* not jtreg.

Well, we don't support browser applets any more.
And the scenario it was testing was explicitly a case that happened with the browser.

And to cap it all, I see no way for you to tell jtreg that it passed or failed - because
you run it in the browser.

So it is manual in the sense that it is NOT a jtreg test and so it should not even have
an @test tag.

These are more than enough reasons to just delete it.
