[Bug 13894] New: window.open() doesn't check for trusted events the way HTMLAnchorElement.click() does. We should probably move the check into the "rules for choosing a browsing context" algorithm.

           Summary: window.open() doesn't check for trusted events the way
                    HTMLAnchorElement.click() does. We should probably
                    move the check into the "rules for choosing a browsing
                    context" algorithm.

HTMLAnchorElement.click() does. We should probably move the check into the
"rules for choosing a browsing context" algorithm.
