Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] COOP: restrict-properties early review (Issue #760)

Hi @torgo, the origin trial will start in Chrome 116 (stable release Tue, Aug 15, 2023), and is expected to run for around 3 milestones, so we should get the first pieces of feedback outside Google in September. An important piece of context,  is that Chrome still has unrestricted  SharedArrayBuffer (not bound by COOP and COEP) behind a "reverse" Origin Trial, and that we are trying to remove it as quickly as possible without breaking existing uses. This prompts us to find solutions to the popup use cases more aggressively, without waiting for the wider adoption of other APIs that could replace popup uses in the long run (WebAuthn for example).

Firefox was involved in the original discussions, see (https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/6364, mostly @annevk at the time). The proposal involves novel possibilities for the HTML spec (same-origin documents being able to reach each other but be considered cross-origin for example). The final consensus was that we would need to first demonstrate that it would solve developers issues and be a generally worthwhile addition to the web platform before being reviewed. That's what we aim for with the Origin Trial.

Hope that helps!
