Specification
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/window-object.html#popup-window-is-requested

Summary

This change aligns Chromium with the spec for window.open(), by 1) adding a
"popup" windowFeature to control popup vs. tab/window, and 2) ensuring all
BarProp properties return !is_popup.

TAG reviewVery small change, landed as part of the HTML spec, so no TAG
review should be needed.

Risks


Interoperability and Compatibility

This is an interop-driven change, and should result in better interop
around popups. There is a small compat risk, from the changes to the
BarProp properties. They previously always returned true, whereas with this
change they now return !is_popup. The consensus is that the risk should be
fairly low, given low usage and bad interop previously.


Gecko: Positive This was a Firefox-driven change to the spec.

WebKit: No signal Safari has been very lightly involved in the spec
discussion, but hasn't expressed support or opposition:
