Explainer https://github.com/WICG/nav-speculation/blob/main/triggers.md#window-name-targeting-hints Specification https://wicg.github.io/nav-speculation/speculation-rules.html Summary This extends speculation rules syntax to allow developers to specify the target_hint field. This field provides a hint to indicate a target navigable where a prerendered page will eventually be activated. For example, when _blank is specified as a hint, a prerendered page can be activated for a navigable opened by window.open(). The field has no effect on prefetching. The specification allows this field to accept any strings that are valid as navigable target name or keyword as the value, but this launch supports only one of "_self" or "_blank" strings. If the hint is not specified, it's treated like "_self" is specified.

Speculation rules itself is a progressive enhancement, so the interoperability risks are low. Additionally, the compatibility risks for this feature are low: if we removed it in the future, it would cause some prerenders to start failing, but prerendering is never guaranteed to work and is hard to depend on. Gecko: Neutral (https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/620) Mozilla was notified about this addition to the speculation rules syntax on the overall speculation rules standards positions thread, and gave an overall neutral response to the feature. WebKit: No signal (https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/54) Web developers: No signals Other signals: SpeedKit/Baqend https://github.com/WICG/nav-speculation/issues/374 We also know of a Google site which has experimented with this feature and successfully used it to enable prerendering which was previously not possible WebView application risks Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications? None Debuggability DevTools supports speculation rules: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/debugging-speculation-rules/ Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)? No Android WebView doesn't support speculation rules prerender yet. Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests?

Please list open issues (eg links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (eg, changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way). No spec changes are planned.
