Created attachment 157090 [details] Sample app demonstrating the problem In order to support opening new Windows, a PopupHandler needs to be added that creates a new stage on demand. There already is a handler for alert, confirm, and prompt, but the popuphandler is missing. If you run the attached sample it won't open a new Window. Expected Behaviour: window.open should open a new Window. Perceived Behaviour: window.open doesn't open a new Window. Workaround: none
Created attachment 157091 [details] patch this patch adds a Popuphandler and fixes the problem
To integrate this we need a test (in TCK) to guarantee the behavior on all supported platforms.
Cannot write a test, because of 256323.
Issue 256323 has been resolved (as won'tfix). Any other blocker?
Hurry up if you want this to be available in version 1.3 - I hope it will be released in January 2015 (plus/minus six months).
