Recently upgraded testing-stack:

- Selenium 3.11.0
- Gecko Driver 0.20.0
- Geb 2.1

I have an `index.html` with this link:


<div><a id="openNewChat" href="#" target="_blank">Open new chat</a></div>


Manual browsing with current Chrome or Firefox on MacOS, clicking this link 
opens a new tab containing the same page.

With this Geb code:


withNewWindow({ $('#openNewChat').click() }, close: false) {
       $('#username').value('a')
       $('#message').value('xxx')
       $('#btnSend').click()
       otherBrowser = getCurrentWindow()
     }



... Geb throws a NoNewWindowException every execution.  If I change the 
target to target="otherBrowser", the exception is not thrown, and the test 
passes.

Is Geb/WebDriver/Gecko/Selenium doing something wrong here?  I'm guessing 
that the answer is going to come back that this is a problem upstream of 
Geb, and that Geb is just seeing the driver report the same set of 
availableWindows before and after the click.
