I suspect that the Firefox behavior will need to change when they add support for notifications. I still think that a superior change would be to prevent applications from calling window.focus() or window.blur() in the context of a user gesture once they've opened a new window. This would address popunders, while still allowing notifications to work. > > Does any port want to have this new behavior configurable by e.g. a > setting? > > Feel free to directly comment on the bug. > > best > -jochen > > _______________________________________________ > webkit-dev mailing list > webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org > http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev > >
