We have the new dynamicDowncast we could use:
if (auto* document = dynamicDowncast<Document>(context);
!document->isFullyActive())
    return;

Also, this makes the case of iframes detached-then-reattached potentially
complex to handle for developers.
Say we query permission before detaching (and get granted), we detach, we
change permission to prompt, we reattach the frame and we query permission
again.
The two permission objects would have different state. This seems somewhat
inconvenient for web developers (although simpler for implementors).
There could be a case where web page hangs on the first permission object
state.

Ditto for dynamicDowncast
