Before the browser tries to load the stream for the "src" attribute, it will call NPP_GetValue for "NPPVpluginCancelSrcStream", passing a pointer to an NPBool as the value.
If the plug-in returns an error or sets the pointed to value to false, the stream will be loaded. If the plug-in sets the pointed to vale to true, the stream will not be loaded.
For full-frame plug-ins, where a load has already started, the browser will cancel the load if the plug-in indicates that the src stream should be skipped.
