So here is an idea: make the document.domain setter throw inside an
iframe@sandbox, *regardless* of allow-same-origin. That solves the
mail.google.com VS calendar.google.com case.

How exactly does it solve it?  How is @sandbox even relevant here?
(feeling this might be again an instance of me misunderstanding the spec. sigh. sorry about that if that's the case) I mistakenly wrote "VS" giving the impression that this is a security oriented thread, but that's not what I meant. Sorry for the mislead.
I was following up on the iframe process isolation idea.

document.domain requires opt-on on both sides
Indeed and that's the reason what I describe works I believe.
Let's say we have pages from 2 domains "a.example.org" and "b.example.org". One has an iframe to the other. iframe process isolation is not possible, because at any point, both could set their domains to "example.org" (or process isolation is possible, but the deoptimization would have a violent cost)

"a.example.org" can sandbox the iframe to "b.example.org" and process isolation becomes possible again, because the parent and iframe are guaranteed to be of a different origin. However, this looses the origin of the iframe which breaks localstorage, etc. This can be solved with allow-same-origin, but process isolation is lost back because we're pretty much back in the previous case.

What I'm suggesting is the following: poison the document.domain setter in sandboxed iframes regardless of whether there is allow-same-origin. This way, in the "a.example.org"/"b.example.org" case, the iframe can be process isolated (because guaranteed to be of a different origin).
This also applies to "example.org" with a "b.example.org" iframe.
The only case this doesn't allow to optimize is "a.example.org" with an iframe to "example.org", where "a.example.org" might set document.domain to "example.org".
