Risks


Interoperability and Compatibility

The addition of `showPopover({source})` poses no compat risk, since it's a
new capability. Making popover invokers into implicit anchor elements poses
an extremely-small compat risk, in the case that a site: 1) uses
popovertarget to invoke a popover 2) uses an anchor positioning property
like `position-area` or the `anchor()` function, but critically *does not*
use `position-anchor` or `anchor-name` to actually connect those properties
between elements. 3) *relies* on there being no actual anchor positioning
connection between the popover and the invoker. While this is certainly
possible, it is very unlikely, especially given how recently anchor
positioning shipped, in only Chromium browsers.

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or
interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues
in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may
introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of
the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
