--- Comment #3 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> ---
window.open("user@example.com") should just resolve that string as a relative
URL to the current page's base URL and open that, as far as I can tell.
My point is how do you know when a navigation is not expected? Should this
navigate or not?:
window.open("mailto:user@example.com")
If you have registered a 'mailto' handler, it should. If your browser has a
built-in mail client that renders in a tab, it should. Should this navigate, or
not?:
window.open("http://example.com/test")
If that URL points to a file with a Content-Disposition header, should the tab
remain open? (Right now the "Resource handling" step in the spec suggests that
it should, but the browser is allowed to close tabs whenever it wants.)
