I'm currently working on bug 1095236 - that's an e10s bug for us failing
to open any windows if the features string includes dialog=1 (or
dialog=yes).
According to [1], setting dialog=1 makes a popup window that removes the
min/max/restore buttons, and no "command" menu (the icon usually
appearing in the top left which opens the Restore, Move, Size, etc
options). Note that this is only really apparent on Windows, where we
default to having such buttons on popups.
What does this currently do in non-E10S mode? And what do other browsers
actually do?
I generally think we shouldn't do too much special here. Especially
considering that this argument doesn't even make much sense on platforms
with a radically different notion of "window" (ie, mobile).
ISTR that window.open() once used to allow lots of this kind of stuff
back in the Web 0.8 days, and its functionality has been pared down over
the years due to UX and security concerns.
