Specification
https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/12898


Summary
https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/12898 Sanitizer API also sanitizes 
javascript:-URLs, when they are used for navigation. This was originally done 
as a side effect of any "safe" method that uses Sanitizer, and omittted for any 
"unsafe" method. The HTML standard recently regularized this and made this a 
developer-selectable option, instead of a side-effect of a particular method. 
Behaviour when the option is not used remains the same.


Blink component
Blink>SecurityFeature>SanitizerAPI


Web Feature ID
SanitizerAPI


Motivation
Previously, Sanitizer API already supported sanitizing javascript:-URLs, but 
only for "safe" methods. This was awkward if users wanted to use the "unsafe" 
methods for some reason, but still wanted javascript:-URLs removed. Further 
discussion on: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/12686

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop 
issues. 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).
None. (https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/12898 already landed.)
