<https://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/pull/235>
Summary
transitionWhile() is being replaced by navigateEvent.intercept()
due to design flaws reported by developers.
The flaws in transitionWhile() were discussed
inhttps://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/issues/230
<https://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/issues/230>,
the spec update to replace transitionWhile() with intercept() is
athttps://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/pull/235
<https://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/pull/235>, and the
introduction of intercept() has its own chromestatus entry
athttps://chromestatus.com/feature/5194055716700160

Motivation
transitionWhile() has design issues that have meant developers
have found it difficult to use effectively, detailed
inhttps://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/issues/230#issuecomment-1137891972
<https://github.com/WICG/navigation-api/issues/230#issuecomment-1137891972>
intercept() is being introduced to provide a more usable API for
the same basic functionality of transitionWhile().

Risks
Interoperability and Compatibility
For those migrating to intercept(), the main risk is that web
developer "handling" logic will run at a subtly different time,
but per the explainer that time will actually be less buggy in the
usual case.
Also, transitionWhile() only recently shipped (M102). There are
few consumers of the API, and we are in contact with most of them
already, so we believe we can guide them on any migration
challenges they might have.
The overall use counter for the navigation API
(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/4056
<https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/4056>)
shows 0.000097% of pages on the web using any portion of the API,
which provides an upper bound on the potential breakage here.
(That use counter also counts various other entry points to the
API, which are not being changed.)
We plan to support both intercept() and transitionWhile() for 3
releases to provide a migration period (adding intercept() in
M105, removing transitionWhile() in M108).

engagement there.
