The code that handles new view requests in the browser switches by
default to the new tab only if the disposition of the request is
DispositionNewForegroundTab. Other dispositions (such as
DispositionCurrentTab, DispositionNewBackgroundTab, DispositionNewPopup,
DispositionNewWindow) will open a new background tab. This may need to
be revisited. In particular, the 'userGesture' property is not currently
used.

As a side note, there’s ongoing work to support multiple windows, but
I’m not sure yet what we will do with popups.

** Summary changed:

- opening a popup/tab should directly focus it
