Open
Description
If we move to a micro-queue for more things, we may have some issues with window.open in some scenarios:
test page: http://static.iamstef.net/security-open.html
This may or may not be a blocker, but figured I would drop findings so far here. So we can decide.
What is this? Turns out, there are some security features that prevent window.open from causing a window to open in several cases. specific if it seems to be not legimately the result of a user interaction either nothing happens, or a popup blocker UI is provided.
Now, the heuristics for "legit" vs "illegitimate" window.open attempt is abit fuzzy.
