           Summary: Popup blocker should block non-webkit handled protocols
                    without user action
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://projects.info-pull.com/moab/MOAB-19-01-2007.html
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: webkit-bugs at gentlyusedunderwear.com


If you go to http://projects.info-pull.com/moab/MOAB-19-01-2007.html (DO NOT GO
HERE, IT DOES EVIL!) it'll attempt to open a lot of irc:, aim:, and mailto:
protocol links automatically. A large bunch of them. I think these should be
considered non user initiated popups for the case of handling them in the popup
blocker.

I'm not actually sure if this is Safari or WebKit related. I'm not even sure if
it is security related.
